Liverpool agrees on personal terms with Darwin Nunez. Finally, the transfer saga around Benfica striker Darwin Nunez is coming to a close. The move to Liverpool is in the works. However, the 22-year-old striker was linked to Manchester United and now he is moving to Liverpool. He has scored 34 times in 41 appearances in 2021-2022. Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool are ready to present the formal offer for the player. The offer is said to be 85 million pounds. In the Champions League, he scored six goals in ten games. He has scored against big teams like Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Ajax, and Liverpool.
Darwin Nunez finally starts moving.
There is an agreement on the personal terms and now they are agreeing on the personal terms. The deal is very close. However, if Nunez moves to Liverpool it might see the departure of Sadio Mane. Bayern is linked with Mane. Darwin Nunez also wants this move to Liverpool even though he is linked to other big clubs. The main deal is said to stand at seventy-five million pounds with some add-ons. There is also a down payment of 65 million pounds and 18 million in add-ons.
Nunez has said he will not listen to other clubs. He will sign a five-year contract with Liverpool. It is very likely that he will be a Liverpool player. In addition, his salary is set at 250000 euros per week and above.
If this deal goes through it will break the club record for transfer. The club record was with Virgil van Dijk in 2018. That deal cost 84.5 million pounds. Moreover, Darwin will be important for the team because Klopp is looking to reduce the age of his squad and help in rejuvenating the team. Also, Salah, Mane, and Firmino are all above the age of 30 by the end of this month and their contracts expire in 2023.
Thus Darwin Nunez is going to be a welcome addition to the team. His youth and attacking strengths are going to be immense if Liverpool gets him.
