If an offer for that figure from Liverpool were made, it would become the most expensive signing in the club's history, exceeding the 85 million paid by Virgil Van Dijk. In addition, it would be the second most crucial sale in the Portuguese League after Joao Felix to Atletico Madrid for 127 million.
Liverpool knows that one of its attacking figures, Sadio Mane, is looking to leave the club in this market, with Bayern Munich already on top of the player's situation and as the most likely destination for the Senegalese. Nunez would arrive to make up for that loss and probably become the centre forward of the team, accompanied by Luis Diaz on the left and Mohamed Salah on the right-wing.
However, not everything has been said since ESPN's correspondent in Manchester, Rob Dawson, reported that the Red Devils are willing to dispute the Uruguayan pass with their rivals. It is well known that Manchester United is looking for a centre-forward - even more so with the departure of Edinson Cavani and the fact that Cristiano Ronaldo is now 37 years old - and Darwin Nunez "is high up on the club's list of priorities," the journalist said.
The article on the English site of ESPN indicates that a problem for both United and the Reds would be the figure requested by Benfica to let him go. However, they understand that the Portuguese club will consider any offer exceeding 90 million euros. Dawson said that sources told him that some Spanish clubs are also attentive to the development of offers for the attacker of the Uruguayan National Team.
Manchester United is looking to revitalize its squad with the arrival of the Dutchman Erik ten Hag as manager after achieving the club's worst season under the leadership of Ralf Rangnick since the creation of the Premier League last year.
