Benfica have reached an agreement with Liverpool for the sale of forward Darwin Nunez for an initial fee of €75 million (US$78.59 million), the Portuguese club announced on Monday (Jun 13).
Liverpool have reached a deal with Benfica to buy the Uruguay striker Darwin Nunez for an initial 75 million euros (£64 million), the Portuguese club said on Monday. The transfer could eventually rise to 100 million euros, Benfica said in a statement, eclipsing Liverpool's club-record £75 million paid to Southampton for Dutch centre-back Virgil van Dijk in 2018.
The loan market has been especially kind to Celtic in recent seasons.

Erik ten Hag apparently isn’t that fussed to have missed out on Darwin Nunez as he would have ‘compromised the club’s strategies’, and Manchester United could instead move for a different forward he ‘appreciates’.
Robbie Fowler claimed it’s a “guarantee” Liverpool were uneasy about one aspect of their Darwin Nunez deal, and fired shots at Man Utd over their transfer record.
This isn’t how it was meant to go. When those that covered football were looking towards the future last summer there was one prospect that people kept coming back to. There was this theory around a rivalry in Spain that could try to get close to what we saw between Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
After weeks of speculation, it would appear that Liverpool have finally got their man, with Benfica striker Darwin Nunez seemingly on his way to Anfield in an £85m deal.
