Darwin Nunez—the man who ran like a gazelle but finished like a confused octopus—might finally be packing his bags for the Middle East. According to transfer oracle Fabrizio Romano, Al Hilal are closing in on a deal worth €70 million for the Liverpool forward, pending personal terms. And this time, it feels realer than Nunez’s xG numbers.
Al Hilal Want Goals, Not Just Hair Flair: Darwin Nunez in Their Crosshairs
Al Hilal, evidently tired of strikers who don’t break the offside trap every 8 seconds, sees Darwin Nunez as the next marquee man in their ever-growing collection of “once Premier League, now prince.” With Núñez possibly heading out, Liverpool’s new darling Hugo Ekitike and long-term target Alexander Isak are poised to reshape the Merseyside frontline.
If Al Hilal gets their Darwin Nunez wish, it could mean the end of the road for Aleksandar Mitrovic. Yep—the club has reportedly told the Serbian bulldozer he’s now the second-choice chaos merchant. A possible loan or permanent exit is on the cards, and Fulham fans are already peeking nervously from behind their sofas.
Darwin Nunez Exit Could Unlock Liverpool 2.0
Of course, most certainly Nunez – 40 goals in 143 games. But let’s be honest: it’s the 103 missed sitters we remember more fondly. Arne Slot has praised his work rate—because someone had to—but Liverpool are clearly building something sharper, faster, and less prone to skying one-on-ones into Row Z.
In come Frimpong, Wirtz, Kerkez, and maybe Isak. Out goes Darwin Nunez, leaving behind a legacy of chaos, charm, and the occasional golazo.
Conclusion: Goodbye Chaos, Hello Riyadh
If this Nunez transfer goes through, expect fireworks—and not just from Mitrovic’s agent. Liverpool gets a war chest. Al Hilal gets a Ferrari with faulty brakes. And football Twitter? Oh, they get memes for months.
