Napoli 'make contact' with Liverpool over Darwin Nunez transfer, but Man United star also features on 'Antonio Conte's three-man striker shortlist'

Napoli are reportedly targeting Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez for a summer move.

The Reds broke their transfer record to sign Nunez from Benfica for £85million in 2022 but he is ready to leave Anfield after a lack of starting opportunities under Arne Slot.

The 25-year-old scored seven times last season as Liverpool wrapped up the Premier League title and he is contracted until 2028.

Saudi side Al-Nassr previously made enquiries to sign the Uruguay international in January and were prepared to offer £70m but Liverpool were unwilling to listen at that stage as their focus was on winning the league title.
