Darwin Nunez strikes bombshell agreement just months after leaving Liverpool

Darwin Nunez strikes bombshell agreement just months after leaving Liverpool Darwin Nunez has struck a bombshell agreement and it comes less than a year after leaving Liverpool. Darwin Nunez has reportedly agreed to leave Al-Hilal this summer. That comes less than one year since joining the club in a big-money deal.

Nunez cost the Saudi side over £40m ( Sky Sports ) in a much-anticipated deal. In fact, Al-Hilal had chased the player since the previous January - a story exclusively broken here at Anfield Watch . But things have been a bit of a disaster.

That's not really the player's fault, though - Nunez has decent numbers for the minutes he's played. The real problem was Al-Hilal's decision to replace him with Karim Benzema after just a few months. Nunez has been out of the squad ever since and isn't part of the plans there.

And so El Observador reports that he's now got an agreement to depart for somewhere new. A return to Anfield almost certainly isn't on the cards, though it's very possible we see him lining up against Liverpool somewhere very soon.
