Football Italia said Napoli had informed Liverpool that they would not pursue the deal any further, as they were unable to meet the Premier League club's €60m asking price.
Napoli had identified Nunez as a top target for Antonio Conte to upgrade his attack. The Italian club also held several negotiations with Liverpool in an attempt to reach an agreement. However, Liverpool stuck to their valuation, forcing Napoli to instead sign Udinese striker Lorenzo Lucca.
Nunez was said to be keen on a move to Italy to revive his career after a difficult season under coach Arne Slot. However, the striker was unable to join Napoli as desired.
With Napoli's withdrawal, Nunez is at a crucial crossroads in his career. He has also received interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia. Although no official offer has been accepted, Nunez has not ruled out the possibility of playing in this country.
The sudden death of Diogo Jota has prompted Liverpool to reconsider Nunez's future. If they can't land big-money signings like Alexander Isak or Hugo Ekitike this summer, the Uruguayan striker could be kept.
Goals on the day Liverpool won the championship In the early morning of April 28, Liverpool crushed Tottenham 5-1 at Anfield, thereby winning the Premier League championship 4 rounds early.
