Manchester United favourites to sign €60m striker

Nunez wanted by Man Utd

Manchester United favourites to sign €60m striker

11 February 2022 - 20:33

Manchester United are deemed favourites to sign Benfica striker Darwin Nunez at the end of the campaign.

  • Arsenal to battle Napoli to sign Alexsandro Ribeiro?
  • AC Milan make offer to sign Riccardo Calafiori



  • Nunez has been in superb form for the Portuguese giants this term, bagging 21 goals across all competitions.

    His progress has caught the eye of several teams, and Traspasos claims that United are favourites to land him.

    The Red Devils have been keeping a close watch on the striker's performances over the past couple of months.

    He is being eyed as a replacement for Edinson Cavani while offering stiff competition to Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Nunez was the subject of interest from West Ham United last month, but Benfica refused a mid-season deal.

    They are, however, willing to do business this summer. The club are expected to demand a fee of €60m.

    Nunez has also been linked with Brighton & Hove Albion in the past, but they are unlikely to return for him.

    Benfica valued the striker at €40m last summer, but their valuation has increased amid his fine scoring form.
