Atletico Madrid wants TWO Liverpool players, after big-money flop told time is up.

A big-money failure has been informed that his time is up, and Atletico Madrid is interested in two Liverpool players.

Two Liverpool players, including Darwin Nunez, are on Atletico Madrid’s wanted list, and the Uruguayan has been informed that it is unlikely that he will be at Anfield next season.

Liverpool’s commitment to a club-record package worth £85m (add-ons included) to acquire Nunez from Benfica in 2022 was met with much anticipation.

The pacy frontman has exhibited moments of brilliance, but his time in England has been primarily defined by his inability to remain onside, poor interplay, and wasteful finishing. Diogo Jota was promptly installed as his preferred striker by the new manager, Arne Slot, at the beginning of the season.

rib injury provided Nunez with an opportunity to disprove his management; however, a return of three goals in 19 matches would have been insufficient to alter Slot’s perspective.

Liverpool may soon have the opportunity to reduce their losses on Nunez, according to a recent update from Sports Illustrated.

He and left-back Kostas Tsimikas are said to have “great admirers” in the guise of Atletico Madrid and manager Diego Simeone. Additionally, Atleti assigned observers to observe Liverpool’s match against Girona on Wednesday, during which Nunez was the starter.

At present, Atleti’s efforts to facilitate a transfer for either player have only progressed as far as interest from distance and scouting missions.

Nevertheless, Jamie Carragher, a club legend, is one observer who is of the opinion that Nunez’s future lies outside of Anfield.

Last week, during an appearance on The Overlap, Carragher expressed uncertainty regarding Nunez’s availability for the upcoming season.

“I anticipate that he will likely depart.” He is more akin to a cult hero due to his tendency to flee and his tendency to be a bit irate; however, he surpasses [Divock] Origi. EXCLUSIVE:

Atletico Madrid is not the sole European superpower that is recognizing an opportunity with Nunez, as TEAMtalk has been informed.

AC Milan is also an admirer of the striker who is known for his hit-and-miss performances, according to Fraser Gillan, our insider.

It is logical to assume that Liverpool would pursue a direct replacement if they were to redeem Nunez in 2025.
