Newcastle United is reportedly shifting its focus towards Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez, having moved on from pursuing Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, who might join Liverpool instead. Nunez, who joined Liverpool from Benfica in 2022, has had some decent moments but struggled with consistency in the Premier League. His potential move to Newcastle could provide much-needed depth, especially as alternatives to first-choice striker Alexander Isak are currently limited. The club may face competition for Nunez's signature, and he could prove to be an expensive addition to their squad.
Newcastle United is reportedly shifting focus towards Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez after exiting the race for Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitike, who may join Liverpool.
Nunez has had decent moments at Liverpool since his move from Benfica in 2022, but overall he has struggled to adapt to the Premier League.
While Nunez seems better suited to a departure from Liverpool, he could still provide valuable depth as a squad player at Newcastle with Alexander Isak's limited alternatives.
Newcastle's intent to pursue Nunez as a potential signing comes amidst competition for his signature and the understanding that he may not come cheap.
