Pundit Simon Jordan has labelled the move for Darwin Nunez as a “half sensible deal” for Liverpool, and has compared it to Manchester City’s move for Erling Haaland.
The Reds have reached an agreement with Benfica for the transfer of the 22-year-old. The Portuguese club confirmed in the early hours of Monday morning that a deal worth a potential £85m (€100m) had been struck.
The deal will see Liverpool pay €75m (£64.1m) plus a possible further €25m (£21.3m) in add-ons. It is understood that Nunez will sign a six-year contract until the summer of 2028, and his medical is already underway.
