What's the story

Liverpool have agreed a deal with Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal for the transfer of striker Darwin Nunez. According to Fabrizio Romano and The Athletic's David Ornstein, Al-Hilal and Liverpool have reached an agreement in principle to sign Nunez. The fee is said to be €53m plus add-ons. Meanwhile, talks with Nunez is ongoing to get green light from the player on personal terms.

Player's consent

Nunez gives his nod to Al-Hilal proposal

The 26-year-old Uruguayan forward has given his nod to the proposal, speeding up the transfer talks. While certain details are yet to be finalized for an official announcement, Liverpool has allowed Nunez to talk with Al-Hilal. The Saudi club had identified him as a key target last Sunday and has moved swiftly to finalize the deal.

Transfer dynamics

AC Milan and Napoli were also interested in Nunez

AC Milan and Serie A champions Napoli were also said to be interested in signing Nunez, but their chances were curtailed by Al-Hilal's financial muscle. Notably, back in January, Liverpool had turned down a €70 million offer from Al-Nassr for the striker as they weren't looking to sell him mid-season. Liverpool, who signed Hugo Etikite in the summer and are also monitoring Alexander Isak's situation at Newcastle United, will have a new attacking line this season.
