It seems like a matter of days before Liverpool announce the
signing of 22 year old striker, Darwin Nuñez. The Uruguayan 'killer', who this
season has scored 34 goals in the 41 games for Portuguese club, Benfica, would
land in Merseyside. This points to the departure of Sadio Mané, 30, to Bayern
Munich. Mane, a few days ago publicly stated his intention to leave
Anfield this summer. The signing of Nunez, and if the figures reported in
English press are confirmed, will become the most expensive signing in the
history of The Reds’.
-----------
As per ‘The Athletic’, Liverpool made a second offer
of 80 million euros, fixed, plus 20 in variables. This amount exceeds the 84.65
million euros Liverpool paid to Southampton in 2018 for Virgil van Dijk – the
world’s most expensive center-back signing.
Three players from the current Liverpool squad complete
for the Top-5 most expensive transfers in the history of The Reds’: Alisson
Becker, who was signed for 62.5 million euros from Roma, Naby Keïta, 60 million
from RB Leipzig, and the Colombian Luis Díaz, for which Porto received 47
million euros in the January transfer window.
For its part, Benfica would quadruple the 24
million euros it spent on signing Darwin Nunez in the summer of 2020 from
Almeria.
