Five Chelsea stars that can be sold to fund Darwin Nunez transfer after superb Liverpool showing

Many eyes from around Europe would have been on one man as Benfica travelled to Anfield to take on Liverpool on Wednesday evening. That's Darwin Nunez of course, who has attracted the interest of several European clubs, including Chelsea, this season with his sensational performances for Benfica.

The 22-year-old, who is thought to be available for €70million (£58.2million) in the summer transfer window, did not let any of his interested parties down on the biggest stage. Nunez had the ball in the back of the net on three occasions at Anfield - with all of them being top finishes - but only one of them counted.

The Uruguayan's movement, physicality and speed, caused Liverpool all sorts of issues on the night as the Reds ended up progressing into the Champions League semi-finals. In fact, Nunez was a nuisance to the Liverpool back line in both legs.
