Manchester United have reportedly set their sights on a deal for Benfica striker Darwin Nunez this summer, Portuguese outlet A Bola claims.
Nunez has been identified as one of the Red Devils’ top priorities. He has been in impressive form for the Portuguese outfit this season, contributing 33 goals and four assists in just 38 appearances.
Benfica valued Nunez at around £50m at the beginning of the year, but reports have surfaced that they now want close to £84m.
The Mancunian giants are not the only club in the race of the Uruguayan. Arsenal, Newcastle United, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are among the elite clubs keeping track.
Nunez has netted 31 goals in 37 games across all competitions, including 25 goals in 25 league matches in the Portuguese top flight.
The Benfica hotshot possesses a contract until the end of the 2024-25 campaign.
