Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is set to stay at Anfield and not make a move to Arsenal, according to transfer journalist Fabrizio Romano. The rumors surrounding Nunez’s potential transfer to the Gunners have been dismissed by Romano, who stated that there is no connection between Arsenal, Liverpool, Nunez, and his agents.
Nunez, who is 25 years old and has a contract until June 2028, had an impressive season last year, scoring 18 goals and providing 13 assists in 54 appearances. In comparison, Arsenal’s Kai Havertz scored 14 goals and made 7 assists in 51 matches during the same period.
The Uruguayan striker will be looking to continue his form when Liverpool face Manchester United in their upcoming league fixture.
In other transfer news, Liverpool has reportedly agreed to sign Federico Chiesa from Juventus for a fee of up to £12.5 million. Chiesa expressed his excitement about joining the Merseyside club, thanking Juventus and their fans for their support. The 26-year-old winger, who has suffered a knee injury in the past, is in the final year of his contract with Juventus and is not part of new coach Thiago Motta’s plans.
Chiesa has scored 32 goals and provided 23 assists in 131 matches for Juventus and will be looking to make an impact at Liverpool.
Overall, Liverpool seems to be making moves in the transfer market, with Nunez staying put and Chiesa set to join the ranks at Anfield. Fans will be eager to see how these signings will strengthen the squad as they aim for success in the upcoming season.
