Nunez has netted 40 goals for the Reds, but only seven in all competitions this season in an underwhelming campaign. He has been increasingly out of favour under Arne Slot, with the Reds' imperious Premier League title win doing nothing to help Nunez's case for getting back in the side. The most likely outcome is that Liverpool cut their losses on their €85 million (£72m) record signing and cash in so that they can land a new forward, with Alexander Isak a reported major target.

There was speculation last month that Slot was avoiding starting Nunez so that Liverpool would not have to pay an additional £5m to Benfica for his 60th start for the club. The Dutch manager said, denying these claims: "Sometimes you shouldn't believe what is written about players. It's completely new to me."

Nunez has multiple trophies to show for his time at Liverpool and most of his career left in front of him, so he will no doubt be looking to make an instant impact if he is ultimately to leave Merseyside. There will be no shortage of suitors for him if that is the case.
