Liverpool sent Nicolas Pepe transfer warning as £85m Darwin Nunez nears Premier League move

Premier League clubs are reportedly concerned that Darwin Nunez could end up following a similar career path to Nicolas Pepe, who's not had the easiest time at Arsenal.

As per The Express, Liverpool appear to be Nunez's favoured destination, but the Reds are said to be put off by Benfica's £85million asking price. If they were to sign the Uruguayan for that fee, he would become their most expensive signing ever, having previously spent £75million on Virgil van Dijk back in 2018.

Nunez had been strongly linked with a move to Arsenal over the past few months, but interest has seemingly cooled in recent weeks. Rather ironically, recruitment officials are now reportedly worried that £85million may be too much for a player like Nunez.
