Napoli has identified Liverpool`s Darwin Nunez as their primary target to bolster the attacking line. The Neapolitan club is prepared to invest between €50 million and €60 million for the 1999-born Uruguayan striker, who was originally acquired by the Reds for a total of €100 million. Nunez has already given his approval for the transfer, and his expected salary at Napoli would be around €6 million net per season, similar to his current earnings.
However, the Nunez operation is entirely dependent on the sale of Victor Osimhen. To finance such a significant economic acquisition, President De Laurentiis`s club must first capitalize on the sale of the Nigerian striker. Osimhen, born in 1998, after a loan spell at Galatasaray, hopes for a move to the Premier League, but currently, the most economically advantageous offer comes from Al Hilal. The Saudi club, which has appointed Simone Inzaghi as coach, has presented a proposal significantly higher than that of Galatasaray, which is also working to secure his permanent stay.
In essence, Nunez`s arrival in Naples is closely tied to Osimhen`s departure, a familiar pattern for the Neapolitan club in transfer market operations of this magnitude.
