Uruguayan forward Darwin Núñez, 26, has allegedly been offered to Fenerbahçe. It is reported that he is finding it difficult to adapt in Saudi Arabia after his €53 million summer transfer from Liverpool to Al-Hilal. In response, Fenerbahçe's Football Director, Devin Özek, has reportedly started researching the costs of a potential deal. Núñez's contract with the Saudi club is valid until 2028, and his agent has been informed that the player's current annual salary of €21 million cannot be matched.
It is also understood that Núñez has received positive feedback about the club from Yusuf Akçiçek, who also plays for Al-Hilal, and from former Fenerbahçe defender Lugano. This season, Núñez has scored 4 goals and provided 2 assists in 6 Saudi Pro League appearances. The forward has 36 caps and 13 goals for Uruguay, has also been linked with River Plate, and has a current market value of €45.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
