Speculation continues to mount regarding Darwin Nunez's future at Liverpool following a challenging season. Despite a recent rejection of an offer from Al-Nassr, new reports suggest interest from other clubs, including a surprising recommendation for Paris Saint-Germain.
Nunez's Challenging Season at Liverpool
Darwin Nunez has faced a difficult campaign under new Liverpool head coach Arne Slot. His performance statistics reflect this struggle:
- Goals Scored: 7 goals
- Appearances: 47 appearances
- Starts: Only 17 starts
Adding to his woes, Nunez is currently suspended from international duty with Uruguay due to his involvement in a brawl during last summer's Copa America.
Transfer Interest and Rejections
Liverpool previously turned down an approach from Saudi Pro League club Al-Nassr for Nunez in January. However, the striker continues to attract attention from other clubs:
- Al-Nassr: Rejected in January.
- Atletico Madrid: Reportedly contemplating a bid this summer.
Surprise Suitor Emerges
Former France international Marcel Desailly has surprisingly urged Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) to consider signing Nunez. Desailly believes Nunez could offer valuable depth to the French champions.
Desailly's rationale for Nunez at PSG:
- "Nunez is a point of reference and has great movement."
- "He has been unlucky in front of goal but I think he’d do well in a back-up role for PSG."
Desailly also mentioned Kai Havertz of Arsenal as another player he'd like to see at PSG, highlighting Havertz's versatility as a midfielder and striker.
