🚨 Reports: Deal done, Liverpool offload flop for over £50 million
There's still a lot going on in Liverpool. After the Reds reportedly signed Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike for well over 200 million euros in the summer, players are now being actively sold. As Florian Plettenberg reports, the departure of striker Darwin Nunez is now said to be confirmed. Fabrizio Romano also shortly afterwards made similar statements about 'X'. In addition to Luis Díaz, who moved to FC Bayern Munich, Darwin Núñez is now also leaving. According to the latest reports, the attacker is set to move to Al-Hilal for 50 million euros plus bonuses. A surprisingly high sum, right? Since the Uruguayan came to LFC in 2022 for 85 million euros, he has only scored 26 goals in 95 games and largely fell short of expectations. Well, money is not the most important thing in the Saudi Pro League, as we know. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
