At first I fully dismissed it as I knew it would take a huge bid to force Benfica to sell but apparently we are ready to bid and it is close to actually happening.
I don't really know how to feel here. I do think he's good, but I don't feel he's nowhere near as good as Haaland. I have been really happy with our transfer dealings in the last few years so I'll just have faith in our transfer team.
We do need a forward though - and Nunes is one of the most promising ones available.
I have no doubt about the Liverpool scout; if the club is willing to pay such a high price for him, Numez must be something special. Liverpool do need a stand-alone striker; Mane has been more of a false 9 since Diaz arrived.
