In recent months, Darwin Nunez has experienced what a move to the “Ronaldo league” can actually entail. There is a lot of gold, glitter and sand, but also surprising changes that suddenly leave you as a player out of the squad. Now it is moving towards change, a change that could mean a return to the ball island.
There was never a great success for Darwin Nunez in the Liverpool shirt, the timing of entering the Premier League scene as a striker, while Erling Haaland in 2022 and direct comparison of performances, definitely did not help. Last summer, the Uruguayan international just as well left the UEFA region and gravitated to Saudi Arabian money bins. Now the Premier League will once again lure the 26-year-old.
After a strong start on the Arabian Peninsula, the Uruguayan has had a tough time since the turn of the year. In February, the striker was excluded from Al Hilal’s squad for the remainder of the Saudi Pro League season, after Karim Benzema arrived at the club and took Nunez’s place in the foreign quota.
According to Talksport , Nunez will leave Saudi Arabia this summer, where the player unsurprisingly wants to return to European football. Both Juventus and Chelsea are said to be interested in Nunez signing, according to the English media, but now another Premier League club is elbowing their way forward in the queue.
According to The Chronicle , Newcastle have been following Nunez since his Benfica days and are now said to be very interested in signing the former Liverpool striker. This season, neither Nick Woltemade nor Yeonne Wissa have lived up to expectations at the top, after Alexander Isak left the club.
