Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
AC Milan are keen on signing the Uruguayan International attacker this month, but a report from TeamTalk claims that Liverpool are uninterested in letting the player leave. The £50 million-rated forward has struggled for regular gametime this season and his performances have been quite underwhelming as well. However, Liverpool are in the middle of a title race, and they simply cannot afford to weaken the squad
Nunez is still a very useful player and his ability to operate in multiple attacking roles makes him an asset for the club. Liverpool will not want to lose a versatile player like him any time soon. Milan will probably have to wait until the summer transfer window in order to get the deal done. Liverpool will be hoping to win major trophies this season and they need to keep their squad intact. In addition to that, they should look to bring in quality signings if possible.
Darwin Nunez could be tempted to move
Meanwhile, the opportunity to move to Italy could be an exciting option for the South American striker. He is clearly struggling at Liverpool and it would not be a surprise if he decided to consider his future at the club in the coming months. He has been linked with other European heavyweights as well.
There is no doubt that he is a phenomenal talent with a bright future, but he needs to work on his finishing and decision making if he wants to fulfil his potential. In terms of physicality and technical attributes, he is a world-class talent. It remains to be seen whether Liverpool can unlock his true potential and help him get back to his best.
He was regarded as one of the best young strikers in the world during his time at Benfica. He has never quite managed to live up to the expectations since the big-money move to Liverpool. With that said, his numbers are still very impressive, but his finishing leaves a lot to be desired.
