Benfica’s SAD doesn’t want to sell Darwin Nunez now, in this January market window, and recently turned down Newcastle’s roughly € 50 million offer for the 22-year-old Uruguayan leader, but in His Majesty’s land. continue to argue that the striker remains on the English club’s list of potential purchases, now having a lot of money to invest after being bought by Saudi Arabia’s prince Mohammed bin Salman.

The same sources suggest that magpies they plan to return to work this month and that they can offer 60 million euros to guarantee the hiring of the red striker – with a cancellation clause of 150 million euros – for next summer. Benfica thinks that at least 50 million, but never at this point and believing that later Darwin will be able to appreciate it even more.
