Napoli has been searching for a new striker after selling Victor Osimhen earlier this year. The club is expected to engage in further talks with Liverpool to secure Nunez's transfer. However, the Reds are not willing to sell the striker for a low price, with a valuation of around £70M.
Despite Nunez's inconsistent performance last season, scoring just 7 goals in 47 appearances, Liverpool is looking to recoup some of the £85M they paid for him. The club has already signed several new players, including Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, and Milos Kerkez, and now needs to sell some of their existing players to balance their books.
Nunez's potential departure could be a blow to Liverpool manager Arne Slot, who would need to find a replacement for the Uruguayan striker. Meanwhile, Napoli is eager to secure Nunez's transfer and strengthen their squad for the upcoming season.
