Darwin Nunez was near a January exit from Liverpool after Al Nassr made two significant bids, the last exceeding 62 million. The Saudi club aimed to reinforce their squad to support Cristiano Ronaldo but ultimately turned to Jhon Duran after Liverpool declined to sell Nunez. Liverpool's decision was driven not by financial concerns, but by the challenges of finding a suitable replacement before the transfer deadline. The club plans to reevaluate Nunez's position in the summer, acknowledging his struggle to fit into the team's tactics this season.
"Liverpool's refusal to sell Nunez was not due to the finances, but rather a fear of having to find a replacement as the transfer deadline approached."
"Nunez came 'very close' to leaving Liverpool after Al Nassr lodged two formal bids, with the final being over 62m but Liverpool ultimately rejected it."
