Darwin Nunez Emerges as Low-Cost Barcelona Target

Al-Hilal forward Darwin Nunez has emerged as a low‑cost option for Barcelona. Nunez is waiting for a concrete offer from the Catalan club. Barcelona continue to search for a new number nine ahead of the upcoming season. Their primary target is Argentine striker Julian Alvarez. Real Madrid have submitted a €150 million offer for Alvarez, complicating the pursuit. Financial constraints are prompting Barcelona to examine cheaper alternatives. Nunez appears on the club’s shortlist of attacking options. Super‑agent Jorge Mendes discussed Nunez with Al‑Hilal while talks over Joao Cancelo were ongoing. The striker has been told that Barcelona have considered his situation internally. Nunez lost his licence to play in the Saudi Pro League after squad registration changes linked to Karim Benzema’s arrival at Al‑Hilal. He is now monitoring potential opportunities, including a move to Barcelona.
