Liverpool’s Darwin Núñez Interested in Barcelona Move, but Hansi Flick Unconvinced
As Barcelona prepares to face Real Sociedad in the 26th round of La Liga, they remain top of the table with 54 points, edging out Real Madrid on goal difference. Meanwhile, transfer speculation is heating up ahead of the summer window.
According to El Nacional, Liverpool’s Darwin Núñez is interested in a move to Barcelona, hoping for a fresh start after struggling for consistent playing time in England. The 24-year-old Uruguayan striker’s representatives have reportedly held discussions with Barcelona’s management, as the club looks for a long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski, whose form has declined with age.
However, despite Núñez’s willingness to lower his salary to facilitate the transfer, Barcelona’s new coach, Hansi Flick, is not convinced. The report states that Flick does not believe Núñez meets the necessary standard to play for Barcelona, making a potential move unlikely at this stage.
While talks remain in the early stages, the situation could evolve depending on Barcelona’s attacking needs and Núñez’s future at Liverpool as the summer window approaches.
