Manchester City announced the signature of Erling Haaland on Monday morning. He will lead the line for the Etihad club next season, and inevitable comparisons will be made with Darwin Nunez once he arrives on Merseyside.
Liverpool appear on the verge of signing the Benfica striker for an initial fee of around £64m. This summer, the best two sides in the Premier League are deciding to bolster their attacks by acquiring true poachers in the transfer market.
The pair will almost be in the direct competition with each other moving forward. The perceived success of Nunez's transfer will largely be determined by his performances against Haaland, and vice versa.
