AC Milan have identified Darwin Nuñez as their top choice to strengthen their forward line, according to reports from Italy. The club has reportedly begun initial talks with the Liverpool striker, underlining their serious intent to secure his services. With Massimiliano Allegri now at the helm, the Rossoneri are aiming to provide their new manager with a high-profile attacking option.
Nuñez, who joined Liverpool from Benfica, is now at the centre of Milan’s summer plans. The 25-year-old is viewed as the ideal addition to lead the line as the club looks to reassert its domestic and European ambitions.
Liverpool open to sale amid striker reshuffle
The Merseyside club appears open to parting ways with Nuñez, following a relatively underwhelming campaign in the Premier League where he managed five goals and two assists across 30 appearances. With Liverpool already securing the signing of Hugo Ekitike and reportedly exploring a deal for Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak, competition for places up front has intensified.
As a result, Liverpool are prepared to evaluate potential offers for Nuñez, whose position in the squad could be further challenged if their pursuit of Isak progresses. This situation has paved the way for Milan to step in and attempt to negotiate a transfer.
Allegri’s arrival Spurs ambitious transfer plans
The move for Nuñez is part of a broader strategy by Milan to reinforce their squad under Allegri’s leadership. With the summer window in full swing, the club is actively working to ensure their new manager is equipped with the right tools to compete at the highest level.
Should the negotiations with Nuñez progress successfully, it would mark one of the most significant signings of the Rossoneri’s transfer campaign.
