The Uruguay forward has emerged as Jurgen Klopp’s top summer target, with the Reds bracing themselves to lose Sadio Mane to Bayern Munich
Liverpool are increasingly confident of signing Darwin Nunez from Benfica as Sadio Mane’s move to Bayern Munich edges closer, GOAL can confirm.
The Reds are prepared to pay a club-record fee of more than £75 million ($94m) to land the Uruguayan striker, who is also wanted by Manchester United.
And though they have now rejected two bids from Bayern for Mane, the second worth around £30m ($38m), there is an acceptance at Anfield that a deal will eventually be struck, and that the Senegalese star will join the Bundesliga champions.
