Darwin Núñez Set for Atlético Madrid Move: Agreement Close, but Liverpool Remains Demanding
After a disappointing season at Liverpool, where he scored 7 goals and provided 7 assists, Darwin Núñez seems ready to leave the Premier League for La Liga.
Atlético Madrid has made the Uruguayan their top offensive priority for the summer, and according to El Larguero, talks with the player have progressed quickly, with an agreement nearly in place.
Atlético Must Still Reach Agreement with Liverpool
However, Atlético still needs to come to terms with Liverpool. The Reds are demanding a significant fee to recoup the hefty sum of over €80 million they spent on the striker in 2022.
A Fresh Start in La Liga
Núñez’s time in the Premier League has been underwhelming, but he remains highly rated in La Liga. Atlético will first need to part ways with Ángel Correa, whose transfer will not be discounted, before finalizing Núñez’s arrival.
If the deal goes through, Diego Simeone could finally see his attacking project come to life, with a dynamic duo of Darwin Núñez and Julián Álvarez, recently arrived from Manchester City. The coming days will be crucial to complete this transfer.
