Liverpool players are emotional at the prospect of Darwin Nunez leaving Anfield for good in the summer transfer window, according to TBR.
Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal are in talks with Liverpool and Nunez to get a deal done for the Uruguay international striker, who is expected to leave the Premier League champions following the arrival of Hugo Ekitike and the potential signing of Alexander Isak from Newcastle United.
Journalist Graeme Bailey told TBR: “I am told it has been quite emotional within the Liverpool squad about Darwin Nunez – he is such a popular figure, with staff and players – all you hear is about what a fantastic person he is.
“There are no bad feelings – Nunez was made aware earlier in the summer that Liverpool were changing things and that he would be allowed to leave. That is now close to being finalised.
“Liverpool allowed Nunez’s people to talk to the Pro League some weeks ago and now things are progressing.
“Nunez will be a big loss within the Liverpool dressing room, but if it means the likes of Isak could arrive, ultimately, it will be a big boost for the team.”
