Liverpool’s summer overhaul under new boss Arne Slot is showing no signs of slowing down. While exciting talents like Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Hugo Ekitike, and Milos Kerkez have joined the ranks, several established names have now departed in pursuit of fresh challenges — including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luis Diaz, Jarell Quansah, and Caoimhin Kelleher.
But the most surprising exit might still be on the horizon. According to TBR Football, striker Darwin Nunez has reportedly reached an agreement in principle to leave Anfield, with the Saudi Pro League emerging as his likely destination.
🔁 Slot Moves On From Nunez
Nunez, who has struggled to cement a consistent role in Liverpool’s attack, appears to have fallen out of favour under Arne Slot. Sources indicate that talks are already underway between Liverpool and Saudi clubs — with Graeme Bailey reporting Al-Hilal and Al-Ahli as the frontrunners for the Uruguayan forward’s signature.
“Liverpool still hold Nunez in high regard,” Bailey revealed. “But both sides now acknowledge it just hasn’t clicked. With signings like Wirtz and Ekitike already in, and interest in Isak growing, it’s clear there’s little room left for Darwin in the long-term picture.”
💸 Big Clubs Circling
Clubs in Saudi Arabia are reportedly prepared to offer lucrative terms to lure the forward away from Merseyside. Despite his potential and flashes of brilliance, consistency remained elusive for Nunez — a key reason Liverpool are keen to land a more proven name like Newcastle’s Alexander Isak.
🎙️ High Praise, But Time’s Up?
Football pundit Ally McCoist has previously hailed Nunez as an “unbelievable” talent — but even glowing praise hasn’t stopped the winds of change from blowing at Anfield.
With the Saudi clubs ready to pounce and Liverpool planning a new era under Slot, it seems Nunez’s chapter at Anfield could be coming to a dramatic end.
