Isn't this the guy who refused us due to no CL? Today he accepts us?

He said he was waiting for after CL final and was linked to Liverpool. Make of that what you will.
Not sure why it would make a difference given that they’re in the CL either way. Either it’s bullshit or we’ve added another nought onto our offer
Mane said he was going to confirm his intention after the final.Not sure why it would make a difference given that they’re in the CL either way. Either it’s bullshit or we’ve added another nought onto our offer
Mane confirmed today hel exit. That mean a Liverpool can prioritise their intention accordingly.
Makes sense to me.
I would take him without question. Good strikers are rare these days, Nunez has a good base to be working with. And he scores goals. No elite technique, but that striker isnt available anyway and we cant go into the season with a 38 year old up top.
Oh did he? I missed that, thanks
He chooses to sign for United on the day that Liverpool, CL finalists, can make him a priority after he said he wanted CL football?
How does that make sense to you?
I can still see him signing for Liverpool.
Yeah, you’re right, it does look very odd. Welp, back in you go, Mr. Johnson.
He's done and dusted to the scouse. We move.
I don't really see him as a Klopp player and I must be missing why people seem so certain he's going there suddenly.
Can someone who has truly watched him answer this question, please? Because there's an echo-chamber now of people who undoubtedly have watched less than five games with him in full, commenting that he is technically poor. I find it highly unlikely that this many people have an acquaintance with him considering that we didn't really start speculating about him that long ago, so, it seems to me that at least half of the takes on him are 2nd hand info passed down from something they've heard and re-inforced by some kind of confirmation bias based on a tiny span of games.
Anyone who is investing in the Portuguese league and/or Benfica care to give an informed opinion on how good he is with the ball, because I'm dubious that he's remotely as average as he's being made out to be.

If Nunez joins United and Mane leaves Liverpool, it will be a watershed moment for the rivalry.
We will get him if Benfica are reasonable with their pricing.
Well don't hold out on us, what's he think?
Just your standard caf negativity, woe is me, self-loathing. Take your pick.
He hasnt chosen to sign for anyone. The sources suggesting this are all shit.
He’s the guy that somebody wrote that story about
Darwin looks a mutant to me. Question is, whether he will be naturally selected.
Who is this?
I'm sure that Mane is confirmed leaving means Liverpool will sign this guy instead.
Darwin Nunez, striker from Benfica we're apparently just about to overpay for.
Where are the reliable reports saying Liverpool?
How much we paying?
Nowhere. Apart from the minds of caf posters.
I heard he's a bit of a donkey?
Probably hearsay from other people who heard from hearsay themselves. I wouldn't put much stock in that opinion unless someone reliable who's watched him frequently chips in.
If the right player isn't available then it is better to keep the money in the pocket then to waste it on the wrong player just because he's the only thing we can get.
Benfica fans on this forum have attested to how raw and unrefined he is.
Too much, media quoting figures between €70-80m.
He seems to have exploded this season. Last season he only scored 6 goals?
I think it was in previous pages someone said it's reliable one.
Anyone reliable or just any old bollocks from the likes of DeanJonesSoccer
I fear this too. Since Ragnick is gone, Nkunku will probably end up at Chelsea and we will be left with signing somebody like DKL or any other English over hyped player.
How is his play other than finishing? If they aren't good all-round footballers, I'd rather we avoided.
There are two timelines now.
A) he signs for Liverpool for £50m and bangs in 30 goals next season.
B) he signs for United for £75m and scores 4 goals next season, and gets sold to Lille for £23m in 2024.

Anything on Chucklevision about this?
As it stands only the fella you've mentioned has said we're close to agreeing a deal. Whitwell and Luckhurst have said we're interested but that's as much as they've said.
Rough 1st touch, barely no hold up abilities, totally average passing skills. He runs, he's physical, he scores and that's pretty much it. And pretty much any indicator shows he overrperformed the scoring part this season. I probably watched 15 games where he played this season, I was not impressed. He might evolve obviously but there's absolutely no guarantee he will.
