The Uruguayan striker has been struggling badly of late

With no deal yet in place with Vlahovic, Juventus are keeping an eye on the transfer market for strikers.

Ex-Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez is reportedly in line for a return to the Premier League. Displaced by Karim Benzema at Al-Hilal, Chelsea, Newcastle United, and Tottenham are all said to be monitoring the 26-year-old as he seeks a redemption arc to silence the critics who once labelled him a flop at Anfield.

Chelsea have been advised to consider a transfer swoop for Darwin Nunez, with Marcel Desailly telling the Blues why the ex-Liverpool forward could end up being another Dennis Bergkamp. The mercurial Uruguayan striker endured a tough spell at Anfield, but a World Cup winner believes that he could thrive in the right surroundings - as Bergkamp once did at Arsenal.

Former Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez has been brutally axed from the Al-Hilal squad following the arrival of Karim Benzema. The Saudi Pro League heavyweights, who have their sights set on another domestic title triumph, acquired ex-Real Madrid star Benzema during the winter transfer window. There is now no room in their ranks for Uruguay international Nunez.

Darwin Nunez has explained his wild gate-leaping celebration during Liverpool’s Carabao Cup triumph, with the Uruguayan forward supposedly injured.
