Napoli Nears Transfers for Liverpool Strikers Nunez, Wirtz

Liverpool are making significant moves in the transfer market, nearing the signing of German international Florian Wirtz and having already secured Jeremie Frimpong, while also pursuing Bournemouth's Milos Kerkez. The club is preparing for notable outgoing transfers, with striker Darwin Nunez attracting interest from Napoli, who are eager to bolster Antonio Conte's squad for their Serie A title defense. Napoli face stiff competition for Nunez from clubs including Al-Hilal, Atletico Madrid, and Newcastle, as Liverpool seek to recover most of the £85m paid for him. Federico Chiesa, after an underwhelming season at Liverpool, is also on Napoli's radar, potentially setting up a double transfer raid on the Premier League champions. Financial considerations remain key, with Liverpool valuing Nunez at around €70m and looking to generate funds for further reinforcements. Meanwhile, Napoli are considering alternative striker options such as Manchester United's Rasmus Hojlund and Udinese's Lorenzo Lucca if a deal for Nunez proves too costly.
