Manchester United have been vying for opportunities in the market, and they are considering a surprise transfer that will see Liverpool’s underfire centre-forward Darwin Nunez move to Old Trafford, given the fact that the Merseysiders are looking to move on from the Uruguayan striker following his struggles at L4 in the ongoing 2024/25 campaign, per Fichajes

At United, Ruben Amorim is looking to reshape his roster as per his tactical vision, and apparently getting his hands on a physically dominant and quick forward is one of the things that he is eyeing, and that is where the need for Nunez arises at M16.

A transfer that quite didn’t work out…

Arne Slot and Darwin Nunez
Darwin Nunez to leave Liverpool?

Nunez came to Liverpool in a highly anticipated transfer in 2022 and being the club record signing brought high expectations among the Kop and while he was able to showcase flashes of brilliance, he couldn’t put up consistent performances and justify that price tag. Now that inconsistency has opened up the possibility that could see him leave Anfield, with Arne Slot open to offload him for the right price.

The former Benfica ace’s contract at Kirkby runs until 2028, and if Liverpool are to sell him, they would be looking for a premium fee, and more so if United is the destination. 

Nunez to United… Really?

Though the fact that United and Liverpool share a historical rivalry, any transfer to materialise between the two sides would make it a highly talked-about and controversial move.

Beyond United, the striker could also be keen on joining Saudi Arabian clubs with a lucrative contract in line.
