Fabrizio Romano has provided clarity on the future of Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez, putting to bed rumors of a potential move to Atletico Madrid.
Darwin Nunez to Atletico Madrid? Romano Clears the Air
Speculation had been swirling in recent weeks that Nunez could be on the verge of a switch to Diego Simeone’s side, particularly after Atletico signed Julian Alvarez from Manchester City.
However, Romano has dismissed these reports, stating that there are no ongoing negotiations for the Uruguayan forward.
Nunez, who has struggled to secure a regular starting role under Liverpool’s new manager Arne Slot, has faced increased competition from Diogo Jota.
Despite this, Romano confirmed in his latest Daily Briefing that Nunez remains committed to his challenge at Anfield, focused on his development and proving his worth to the team.
The Italian journalist emphasized that there are no talks between Liverpool and Atletico regarding Nunez.
“I don’t even know where these links are coming from. Núñez to Atlético Madrid… now it’s all completely quiet,” Romano stated, reinforcing that any potential move is not on the table.
Nunez, who scored 15 goals in his debut season and followed up with 18 in the next, has seen limited action this campaign.
Slot has favored other options, but with Liverpool in strong form, the 24-year-old striker remains determined to fight for his place.
Romano’s latest update will reassure Liverpool fans eager to see Nunez regain his form and deliver the performances he is capable of, with his immediate future firmly tied to Anfield.
