Liverpool forward gives green light to Barcelona move

Barcelona are open to the possibility of Robert Lewandowski moving on this summer, and despite signing Vitor Roque for €30m plus €31m in variables this January, will look for a replacement should the situation come to pass. That replacement could be Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez.

The Uruguayan forward has been benched in recent games at Anfield, and has failed to provide the clinical edge that the Reds required this season. After talk of a move this summer surfaced, Nunez erased all trace of Liverpool from his Instagram account, and then appeared in an Instagram story alongside international teammate and Barcelona star Ronald Araujo.

As per Sport, Nunez would accept a move to Barcelona. Before switching to Benfica, Nunez had expressed his desire to play for Barcelona, but the Portuguese side ended up securing  his signature from Almeria. Then Sporting Director Ramon Planes had agreed a deal in principal for Nunez for €8m plus variables while they were still in Segunda, but Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman vetoed the deal, feeling he was not the right option.
