Darwin Nunez completes move to Al Hilal after forgetful Liverpool chapter
Darwin Nunez Liverpool story has come to an end, and it's fair to say it wasn't quite the fairy tale many expected. The Uruguayan striker completed his switch to Saudi Pro League heavyweights Al Hilal on Sunday, sealing a three-year deal worth 53 million euros (46.3m).The 26-year-old arrived at Anfield in 2022 with fanfare, fireworks, and a hefty 64m price tag after lighting up Portuguese football with Benfica. Liverpool faithful hoped they'd landed a striker to terrorise defences for years. The reality? A mixed bag. Nez did manage 40 goals in 143 games for the Reds, but never truly nailed down a consistent starting spot, starting just eight league matches in last season's title-winning this summer, the writing was well and truly on the wall. Liverpool splashed the cash on the likes of Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong — a clear sign Nez's game time was about to shrink even further. Add to that the club's significant transfer exodus — Luis Daz, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Caoimhin Kelleher, Jarell Quansah, and Tyler Morton all departed — and the sale pushes Liverpool's summer income to nearly 200 million euros. For Nunez, the move to Al Hilal offers a clean slate. He's already joined their pre-season camp in Germany, where the Saudi champions are gearing up for another star-studded campaign. Al Hilal, who have been on a mission to attract top European talent, will hope Nunez's pace, power, and poacher's instincts can reignite under new Liverpool's attacking plans might not be finished yet. Nunez's exit could sharpen their focus on Newcastle's Alexander Isak, though their opening 110 million bid has already been turned the end of a chapter that promised more than it delivered — Nunez's Anfield stay will be remembered for moments of chaos, flashes of brilliance, and a lingering sense of 'what if.'- Ends

The first Grasse Perfume Week celebrates diversity of the sector
The first Grasse Perfume Week opened on Thursday to showcase Grasse's expertise and the wide diversity of contemporary perfume creation. Until Saturday, conferences, exhibitions, installations, workshops and tours will take place in and around the center of Grasse. Organized by Nez, an olfactory cultural movement created in 2016 around a specialized publishing house, the event is the counterpart to the Paris Perfume Week created last year, prior to an edition in Shanghai in October. "We want to present a panorama of contemporary perfumery, explain what has happened here, what continues to be done and what will be done tomorrow," explained Romain Raimbault, director of Grasse Perfume Week. While major groups are partnering the event and opening their doors in different parts of Grasse, the perfume mecca, the emphasis is on niche perfumers, invited to showcase their creations in a Palais des Congrès quivering with original fragrances. "Thank you for believing in us. This is the beginning of a beautiful story," said the town's mayor, Jérôme Viaud, who had rose-scented misters installed in the pedestrian streets of the town center. Among the many proposals for professionals, enthusiasts and the curious, the Swiss company Luzi will be organizing a screening of the film "Les Parapluies de Cherbourg" on Friday evening, with fragrances created for eight specific scenes, inspired by what the characters eat, images of the set, and atmospheres. In an exhibition, Marc-Antoine Corticchiato, doctor in chemistry turned perfumer, looks back over 20 years of creations, associating each fragrance with the extract that forms its backbone and an evocation of his inspiration. "I don't start with a fictitious human target, like industrialists' cabinets, but with a story," said the perfumer. Corsican cliffs for "Acqua di Scandola", the breath of a horse for "Equistrius", the light of dawn for his bestseller "Le Cri", bringing together "all the most luminous materials" around ambrette seed, or a carpet of weeds for "Mal Aimé", which combines brambles, roots and nettles around an extract of inula. Like all niche perfumers, he has remained small: six employees, with annual sales of just over two million euros, a quarter of which is generated in France and the rest in some forty countries, including Italy and Kuwait. But he invites the public to cultivate their "olfactory curiosity" so as not to be satisfied with the "consensual notes" of the sector's big successes: "Big brands, small brands, it doesn't matter.

Gas prices heading into Memorial Day Weekend
Ahead of the long Memorial Day Weekend — an indicator of summer travel to come — US gas prices (RB=F) are riding a downtrend, with GasBuddy analysts expecting prices to come down to $3.08 this holiday weekend. Yahoo Finance senior industry reporter Ines Ferré breaks down gas pricing forecasts ahead of the holiday weekend. To watch more expert insights and analysis on the latest market action, check out more Wealth here. Americans are going to be hitting the road this weekend for Memorial Day, and we're tracking how much they are going to be paying for these gasoline prices. So we're looking at Triple A right now, that's at $300, $3.18 per gallon for gasoline. A week ago, it was about the same. A month ago, a little bit less. So we've seen a little bit of an uptake. But look, the trends are going down when it comes to gasoline. In fact, you've got GasBuddy that's saying that this Memorial Day weekend, you are going to be paying the lowest price for gasoline since 2021. So we have been seeing declining year-over-year gasoline prices, and you also are seeing that Americans are going to be traveling more this summer. You've got AAA that's saying that around 70% of Americans are going to be taking a summer vacations. They're going to be traveling, and part of this has to do with road trips. They are going to be taking more road trips. The green is the driving. So you can see middle income, high income, and low income. And as you can expect, the lower income households are going to be driving more this summer, guys. All right, sounds like I'm asking my parents to borrow the good car this summer. And Nez, thanks so much. Thank you. Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
