Al Hilal Eye Darwin Nunez as Liverpool Striker Considers Future Move
RIYADH – August 5, 2025:
Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal have reportedly stepped up their pursuit of Darwin Nunez, with manager Simone Inzaghi identifying the Liverpool forward as a key target during the current transfer window.
According to sources, Liverpool have granted Nunez permission to enter preliminary discussions with the Saudi club. The 26-year-old Uruguayan international is said to be in direct contact with Inzaghi as he evaluates his next career move.
No Official Bid Yet, But Interest is Real
While no formal offer has been made to Liverpool, Al Hilal are actively exploring a deal for the striker, who joined the Premier League side in 2022. Club insiders indicate that Liverpool could consider a transfer, provided the terms are right and align with their squad plans.
Nunez, who experienced a mixed 2024–25 season at Anfield, may be open to the idea of a fresh challenge abroad, particularly with the Saudi league’s growing reputation and financial strength.
Al Hilal Continue Aggressive Squad Reinforcement
Al Hilal have been aggressively strengthening their squad, targeting top European talent as part of their broader project to elevate the Saudi league. They believe Nunez could be a marquee signing, bringing both experience and attacking flair to the team.
An official bid is expected to be discussed internally at Al Hilal in the coming days, as the club weighs its options before moving forward.
What’s Next?
Nunez remains under contract at Liverpool, but with discussions now underway and interest from the Gulf intensifying, his future could be decided in the coming weeks.
Fans will be closely watching to see if this high-profile move materializes — one that could significantly reshape Al Hilal’s attacking line-up and Nunez’s career trajectory.
