Liverpool have signed Darwin Nunez from Benfica which was confirmed by the Portuguese club on Sunday evening. The Uruguayan will join the Reds despite reported interest from Manchester United.
Arsenal were also linked to the forward but the failure to qualify for the Champions League seemed to destroy any chances of a potential deal. Despite this, Arsenal are still set to benefit from Nunez’s transfer to Liverpool.
The transfer will likely prevent the Reds from trying to sign one of Arsenal's young stars this summer. On top of this, the Gunners will face less competition in trying to sign their transfer targets ahead of next season.
