Napoli are among several European clubs showing interest in Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez, but no formal talks or offers have been made.

According to Fabrizio Romano, the Serie A side are monitoring his situation as they prepare for the summer window.

Núñez, who joined Liverpool in 2022, had a mixed 2024/25 season. While Saudi clubs like Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal have shown interest, the player reportedly prefers to stay in Europe.

The 25-year-old is said to be on Napoli’s radar as Antonio Conte looks to strengthen his squad. Núñez’s speed, pressing ability, and versatility make him an attractive option for Conte’s high-intensity system.

Liverpool, however, are not in a hurry to sell. They value Núñez at around £60 million and are only likely to consider offers that meet or exceed that figure.

With the transfer window now open, his future remains one of the key storylines to watch this summer.

Today, Manchester United officially announced the acquisition of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The deal, which triggers his £62.5 million release clause, ties the 26‑year‑old to a five‑year contract with an option for a sixth season  .

Wolves benefit from a record sale—this price eclipses their previous high when Matheus Nunes transferred to Manchester City for £53 million  .

Cunha arrives following an impressive campaign with Wolves: 15 Premier League goals last season and 33 goals with 15 assists in 92 appearances across all competitions  . He also recently set up Brazil’s decisive goal in their 2026 World Cup qualifier with Paraguay  .

Club director Jason Wilcox called Cunha one of United’s top summer priorities, praising his dynamic play and proven record in England  .

The forward said the move is a childhood dream:

“It’s hard to put into words my feelings about becoming a Manchester United player… Ever since I was a child … United was my favourite English team.” 

Why This Matters

Strategic addition: Cunha brings Premier League pedigree and versatility to fill the creative/attacking midfield roles under Ruben Amorim.

Ambitious rebuild: United, coming off a 15th-place finish in 2024–25—their worst since 1973–74—are aggressively resetting their roster.

Transfer domino effect: This acquisition could trigger further activity, including departures and additional signings like a central striker or winger.

Matheus Cunha is expected to join pre-season preparations in early July and possibly feature during United’s summer tour in the U.S., ahead of the 2025–26 campaign.

In one of the most eye-catching transfers of the summer, Belgian midfield maestro Kevin De Bruyne has signed with Napoli following the expiration of his contract with Manchester City.

The 33-year-old, widely regarded as one of the greatest midfielders of his generation, has agreed to a two-year deal with the Italian champions, including an option for a third year.

De Bruyne departs Manchester after a decade of dominance, where he became the creative heartbeat of Pep Guardiola’s City side.

During his time at the Etihad, he made 422 appearances, scored 108 goals, and notched 177 assists — becoming the second-highest assist provider in Premier League history with 119.

A Legacy at City

While at Manchester City, De Bruyne helped the club win:

6 Premier League titles

2 FA Cups

5 League Cups

The UEFA Champions League in 2023

His consistent brilliance, vision, and unmatched passing range made him a fan favorite and a club legend.

A New Challenge in Naples

Now, De Bruyne turns to Napoli, who are looking to build on recent success after winning two Serie A titles in three seasons. Under the leadership of new manager Antonio Conte, Napoli are eager to make a deeper run in the UEFA Champions League and see De Bruyne as the ideal figure to lead that charge.

In his first statement as a Napoli player, De Bruyne said:

“Naples is a club full of passion and ambition. I’m excited to bring my experience and help take this team to the next level.”

What This Means for Napoli

Landing a world-class talent like De Bruyne signals Napoli’s determination to compete at the highest level in Europe. With his leadership and playmaking abilities, the Partenopei are expected to be serious contenders not only in Serie A but on the continental stage as well.
