Darwin Nunez eyes Liverpool return after Al-Hilal stint
Darwin Núñez is reportedly eyeing a return to Anfield after a disappointing spell in Saudi Arabia. Chelsea and Barcelona are monitoring the striker, who looks set to become a free agent this summer following an early contract termination.
Darwin Núñez is reportedly seeking a return to Liverpool following a difficult time in Saudi Arabia. As the striker weighs his future, several elite clubs are said to be monitoring his situation closely.
Núñez departed Liverpool in the summer of 2025 on the heels of a Premier League title victory, securing a transfer to Saudi side Al-Hilal. However, his stint in the Middle East has failed to meet expectations.
According to a report from Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, Núñez is eager to rejoin Liverpool as early as this summer. The publication suggests that the 26-year-old is also attracting interest from other suitors; Chelsea, Barcelona, and Newcastle United are cited as potential destinations should a return to Anfield fail to materialize.
The report further indicates that Núñez is set to terminate his contract with Al-Hilal, a move that would see him enter the summer transfer window as a free agent. According to Transfermarkt, the striker’s current market value stands at €20,000,000.
