Al Hilal reach agreement to buy Nunez

Nunez is going to Saudi Arabia.

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the two giants of English football and Saudi Arabia have reached an agreement on the blockbuster transfer of Nunez.

Now, Al Hilal will negotiate with the Uruguayan striker about personal terms including salary and bonuses.

"The decision will be made as soon as possible. Nunez is the name that coach Simone Inzaghi desires to bring to the capital Riyadh," said journalist Romano.

Sources in England revealed that Nunez's transfer fee will not be less than 75 million euros. Accordingly, Liverpool will collect all the money they spent to recruit the player born in 1999 from Benfica.

Al Hilal is also the most likely exit for Nunez, because no club in Europe would risk spending a large amount of money to recruit a player who was left out of coach Arne Slot's plans. Nunez possesses speed and technique but lacks stability - an important factor for him to shine in the Premier League.

In the 2024/25 season, Nunez was often on the bench and only scored 8 goals in the Premier League. In his peak season at Anfield, he only scored 11 goals, a number far below what Nunez showed in Portugal. The 26-year-old striker is expected to find himself again in a less competitive environment like the Saudi Pro League.
