Nunez’s Saudi Arabia Adventure Awaits…

It looks like Darwin Nunez is packing his bags for Saudi Arabia, where sand dunes outnumber neighbors 1000 to 1! The Liverpool striker is set to join Al Hilal in a $61.5 million deal, with some extra cash potentially arriving for Liverpool later. Nunez might have even brought his own camel to Liverpool’s training session as he missed it to quickly say farewell to his mates. His transfer could be finalized during a short stint at Al Hilal’s training camp in Germany.

Nunez’s Liverpool exit is less shocking than finding out grass is green and Sunday follows Saturday. These aren’t first-time rumors; Al Nassr’s interest has existed since Liverpool’s last tea party, err, transfer deadlines. The striker’s previous joke about needing more cash and a cheeky whisper, ‘Come on Saudi,’ suddenly sound prophetic. While fans play ‘what if’ games about his potential if stuck around Anfield, Nunez and his new kingdom, uh, club, could surely use his goal antics. Liverpool fans, meanwhile, have fingers crossed for Isak. Oh, and the kits are for sale, try not to buy them all at once!
