Maybe a years loan for Osimhen and then he becomes a free agent ?
Do onto Italian clubs what Italian clubs have done to us.

I get a feeling that sales will start happening quickly once Wirtz and Kerkez deals are hopefully through. Nunez should definitely become one of Liverpool’s biggest sales - at least I hope so, given his numbers really aren’t bad despite him missing all those sitters and generally falling out of favour over the last three months of the season.

Napoli would be a good destination for the lad, he’d thrive there with the crazy passion around the club.
My take: don’t take the disgusting oil money. It’s not worth it, and what would he do, lost in the sands of Arabia? This isn’t serious, he’s too young and talented for such a gig.

Agree with the sentiment but the problem is that the game is already completely polluted by oil money - cheaty, psg, sandcastle plus all the money flowing to other clubs. At this point we are just cutting off our nose to spite our face if we decline the best offer for him.

The sporting prospect is not really there in Saudi Arabia, so if Darwin has other options he should. A big part of it will be the fee, as we won’t want to accept peanuts just because it’s a better club than the ones in Saudi Arabia.
If he is staying in Europe I’m seeing a deal to Napoli, possibly with Osimhen coming our way, and possibly with Chiesa going there too.
If he goes to Saudi Arabia it will be for decent cash, and I expect us to either go for Osimhen, or perhaps more likely, sign Ekitike.
One thing that is becoming clear is that you can get out of the Saudi league, so if Nunez goes there for a couple of years, earns a bundle and bangs in the goals, there will be another club waiting for him afterwards.

Not sure how he’d fit in with Lukaku already there - people can say what they want about him but he’s twice the striker Nunez was at any point of his Liverpool career.
That said, if they want him (and Chiesa), they can have him as far as I’m concerned - as long as they pay what they would ask from Liverpool if both were their players. Conte chose to remain there on De Laurentis’ promise of reinforcements, so I think the latter will want to make good on it.
Osimhen is another subject altogether but I wouldn’t say no to him if the price was right. He’s a trophy winner and a proven goalscorer entering his prime, who’s unwanted by his club’s volatile president. There might be a deal to be made.

If we somehow parlayed Nunez and Chiesa into Osimhen, in addition to getting a quality CB in this summer, then I am here and now GUARANTEEING that we’ll win a quadruple in the next three years.

Could see them forming a good partnership in the right formation. Darwin providing the running Lukaku was never really interested in and Lukaku providing the clinical finishing Darwin has never managed.
Of course it could easily turn into completely ineffective crap too.
