Arsenal transfer target Darwin Nunez has confirmed that he is set to change agents ahead of a summer where he is expected to be in demand. The Benfica forward reportedly has a number of clubs chasing his services ahead of the summer transfer window - the Gunners as well as Premier League rivals Manchester United having been credited with an interest.
It has been reported that the Portuguese giants could potentially be set to demand up to €80m (£67m) for his services, whilst he has a release clause of €150m (£124m) written into his contract at the Estadio da Luz. Whilst it might have been expected that Nunez’s agents might well have been in for a busy summer, it won’t be his current agents trying to facilitate a move.
Reports in Portugal originally suggested that the Uruguayan was seeking fresh representation - a move that had angered his original agent Egardo Lasalvia. It was suggested that the agent had even gone as far as threatening the striker, something that has been refuted by the 22-year-old despite confirming that he was indeed set to change his representation.
