Transfer rumours are probably older than the game itself, and they have that unique taste, making everything even more charming.But sometimes, they sound so unrealistic that it’s almost impossible to believe. That’s the case with this latest one, but we would be ignorant not to spread the word about it.According to some media, Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid is interested in signing Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez in the next transfer window after the end of the current season.In another life, Darwin Nunez🕊🥹 https://t.co/Y0Xp9imsII pic.twitter.com/2OLpETR8OE— Auds ☝️(Fan) (@AudsleyLFC) February 24, 2025 As per Caught Offside, Los Colchoneros are looking to make changes to their attacking line, as there are some uncertainties about Antoine Griezmann’s future. Julian Alvarez and Alexander Sorloth have their starting XI status secured, but that’s just not enough for the club with the ambitions of Atleti’s level.This has apparently led Atletico to look at Nunez, as well as at Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta and Wolverhampton’s Fabio Silva, currently on loan at Las Palmas.##NAJAVA_MECA_8737079##The fact is that Atletico Madrid has been a Uruguayan-friendly environment for years. Luis Suarez, Diego Godin, Diego Forlan, Cristian Rodriguez, Lucas Torreira and Jose Maria Gimenez have all made a significant mark at Wanda Metrpolitano (and Vicente Calderon, some of them), and Darwin would probably be welcomed as a local boy, one of them, which could allow him to excel.🚨 Arne Slot: “For the second time in a row I wasn’t happy with Darwin Nunez’s work effort”.“I can’t accept if a player doesn’t give everything. That is clear. I can accept it once but twice was a bit too much. That’s why I addressed it”. pic.twitter.com/ekd3dHbz20— Fabrizio Romano (@FabrizioRomano) February 25, 2025 We now know that Liverpool are quite open to selling the Uruguay international after an inconsistent form during his time at Anfield.The 25-year-old has struggled in the Premier League, often mocked for his numerous misses. The Reds’ boss, Arne Slot, has been publicly critical of Nunez recently, and this could be a sign of changes in the foreseeable future.##NAJAVA_MECA_8736724##
