Liverpool have rejected an approach from Saudi Arabian club Al-Nassr for striker Darwin Nunez, while Aston Villa are reportedly close to accepting a £58.6million offer for Jhon Duran from Al-Nassr.
Liverpool have responded to interest in Darwin Nunez after Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr made an approach for the Uruguayan striker, according to reports. The Reds paid around £85m for Nunez in 2022, who scored 34 goals in 41 matches for Benfica the season before they signed him, but his move hasn’t gone to plan. Nunez is currently out of favor with Liverpool manager Arne Slot, scoring just four goals in 17 appearances.

Despite earlier claims that Duran would not leave this winter, Al-Nassr's significant advances have shifted the situation. Duran is now awaiting the final agreements between the two clubs.This potential transfer comes amidst a flurry of activity in the Premier League, with numerous clubs seeking attacking reinforcements. Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United are all looking for a new striker, and Aston Villa's pursuit of Wolves forward Matheus Cunha adds another layer of intrigue to the January transfer window. Real Madrid have also been linked with Duran, with a potential swap deal involving young starlet Endrick mooted.
