Benfica striker Darwin Nunez, currently valued at £85m is a potential target for Liverpool. Manchester United is also keen on signing him.

LIVERPOOL-DARWIN NUNEZ LINKS FULL STORY

Benfica striker is linked with a move to Anfield. Klopp is keen on bringing the young striker to the team. The feeling is mutual as he wants to join Liverpool over Manchester United. Although, there is one problem. Liverpool is reluctant to do business at Benfica’s asking price. The asking price is £85m. Liverpool doesn’t want to be drawn into a bidding war with Manchester United. United has also shown interest in the talented Portuguese striker. However, those close to Benfica have indicated they are open to a structured deal. The Portuguese side would like Liverpool to pay an initial £68 million upfront and £17.1 million in add-ons. Any potential deal would depend on a potential sale of Sadio Mane and Takumi Minamino.

HOW COULD LIVERPOOL LINEUP IF POTENTIAL TRANSFERS DO GO THROUGH

Allison is going to be the number one keeper. Caoimhin Keller is going to be the backup goalkeeper. The centre-back options expected are Virgil Van Djik, Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez, and Joel Matip. The fullbacks expected are Trent Alexander Arnold and Andy Robertson. The midfield options are Jordan Henderson, Thiago Alcantara, Fabinho, Naby Kieta, Harvey Elliot, and James Milner. Alex Oxlade Chamberlin also has to find a new club. The attacking area certainly has interesting options. There is a certain starter in form of Mohammed Salah. The other options for the other two attacking positions include Diogo Jota, Luiz Diaz, Firmino, and Nunez if he signs. Harvey Elliot and new signing Fabio Carvalho will also be utilized in the forward areas.

Possible Liverpool XI for 2022/23 (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Thiago, Henderson; Salah, Nunez, Diaz. If Nunez does sign for Kop, Liverpool again has the chance to go for a potential quadruple. The new season again is going to be an exciting one for Liverpool fans for sure. The potential lineup surely has the potential to fulfil the fan’s dream of another Champions League trophy.
