Darwin Nunez sends goodbye message after Liverpool player exit confirmed
Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez shared an emotional message as speculation over his own future continues to build following a confirmed exit from the club.
Nunez suffered a tough campaign last season under Arne Slot, struggling to establish himself as the first-choice striker. He made just eight Premier League starts, with limited minutes raising questions about his long-term role at Anfield.
Football Insider recently revealed that Liverpool are edging closer to parting ways with Nunez this summer, as they seek to upgrade in the centre-forward role.
Despite interest from the likes of Napoli, Atletico Madrid, and several Saudi Pro League clubs, no concrete offers have yet materialised. However, it’s believed Liverpool could now be open to a cut-price deal for Nunez to offload the forward.
With his own situation unresolved, the Uruguayan took a moment to send a farewell message to a departing teammate, adding an emotional layer to an already uncertain future for himself at the club.

Darwin Nunez sends goodbye message to Luis Diaz
It was confirmed earlier this week that Diaz has left Liverpool to join Bayern Munich in a deal worth £65.5 million in a four-year deal.
Several players, including Cody Gakpo, shared farewell messages, but Nunez opted for a personal touch, dedicating an Instagram story to the Colombian winger.
He wrote: “Bro, I wish you the best in this new phase. I have no doubt you’ll keep crushing it! I’m going to miss you and love you so much!”
Diaz had just two years remaining on his Liverpool contract, and with no new deal in sight, an exit had been on the cards for much of the summer, and that move has now been made official.
The 28-year-old played a key role for Arne Slot last season, scoring 17 goals and registering eight assists as Liverpool lifted the Premier League title.
Liverpool eye Alexander Isak after Luis Diaz exit
With Diaz’s departure confirmed and Nunez also expected to leave soon, the pieces may be falling into place for Liverpool to step up their pursuit of Alexander Isak.
Football Insider reported that Liverpool are “confident” of securing Isak, with the striker himself pushing for the move after informing Newcastle he wants to leave.
Isak is currently training alone away from the first-team squad, and his unsettled status could give Liverpool a crucial edge in finalising a deal.
