Liverpool is the hot spot of this summer transfer window. It's very simple, the Reds are almost all big strokes. Last week, they completed the arrival of French Hugo Ekitike for just over € 90 million. And as if that were not enough, they do everything possible to try to recruit Alexander Isak. A player who absolutely wants to join them. The Mersey club therefore formulated a first offer of € 138 million, plus bonuses. But she was dismissed by the Magpies, who expect more money to let go of their player.

The residents of Anfield will therefore have to draw on their funds, which seem without bottom as they spend without counting when others have the slightest euro. They will also be able to reinvest the sums won thanks to the sales of Luis Diaz (€ 75 million) or Tyler Morton, sold at OL yesterday for an amount of € 10 million, with bonus of up to € 5 million and a profit of 20% on a possible added value. The LFC also plans to get your pockets with Harvey Eliott. For him, the management set a starting price of € 65 million. It is also possible to recruit it for € 55 million, by integrating a buyout clause for the Reds.

The operation enters its final phase

Leipzig, who thinks of him to replace Xavi Simons, will have to go to the checkout. The Germans will not be the only ones. Indeed, Al-Hilal will take out his checkbook to afford Darwin Nuñez (26 years old). This morning, journalist Fabrizio Romano spoke of a verbal agreement between the Reds and the Stable of Saudi Pro League, while specifying that the Uruguayan had to give his agreement. This afternoon, things finally accelerated. The Athletic reveals that an agreement in principle was reached between the two clubs for a transfer of € 53 million, plus bonuses.

Sky Sports Specifies that with the bonuses, this will be € 65 million. That's not all. The former Benfica player also agreed to join Al-Hilal, convinced by coach Simone Inzaghi. Courted for a while in Italy, where Naples and AC Milan were on the ranks, Darwin Nuñez is on the verge of joining the Saudi Pro League. There are only a few details to be paid between all parties so that the deal is definitively completed. This would be a relief for the Reds, who want to separate for several months from the attacker bought € 75 million in 2022 and who has never really managed to win.
