Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is reportedly attracting interest from two Premier League clubs, Nottingham Forest and Newcastle United, in the summer transfer window.
The Uruguayan forward has struggled to find consistent form since joining Liverpool from Benfica in 2022.
Nunez’s Current Situation at Liverpool
Nunez has had a challenging season, starting just 17 of his 40 competitive appearances.
Despite contributing seven goals and seven assists, his performances have been inconsistent, leading to speculation about his future at Anfield.

Forest are looking to strengthen their attack, despite Chris Wood’s impressive form, and have been linked with other top strikers like Napoli’s Victor Osimhen.
Newcastle, on the other hand, are keeping tabs on Nunez as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak, who could leave the club this summer.
Why Forest and Newcastle Need a New Striker
Forest want to bolster their attack for a potential Champions League campaign next season, while Newcastle need a backup plan in case Isak departs.
The Magpies have set a £150m asking price for Isak, which could impact their ability to sign Nunez.
