Liverpool has acted first in the race to sign Benfica striker Darwin Nunez.
That's according to a recent report by prominent transfer expert and CaughtOffside columnist Fabrizio Romano, who has claimed that Jurgen Klopp's Reds have offered Benfica up to £68m (€80m) for the prolific striker...
Liverpool appears to be the clear favourite to sign the talented 22-year-old, but rivals Manchester United have also been on the list.
However, with the Red Devils thought to be upping the ante when it comes to signing midfielder Frenkie De Jong from Barcelona ( TalkSPORT ), fans could well see the 20-time league winners backing down in the race to land Nunez—leaving their bitter rivals with a clear and uncontested path to transfer success.
Since joining Benfica in 2020, Nunez, who has three years left on his contract, has made 84 appearances in all competitions, directly contributing to an impressive 63 goals.
