Recommended Network, June 13, according to the Italian "Milan Sports" newspaper, the head coach Conte, who just led Naples to win the Serie A championship, is actively planning a transfer layout this summer, and his signing targets directly target Liverpool's two major stars - Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunes and Italian winger Federico Chiesa.

Among them, Darwin Nunes became the player Conte was most eager to introduce. At present, negotiations between Naples and Liverpool have quietly started. Naples has been cautious in the transfer market since signing Osmeen from Lille for 78 million euros in 2021. However, this time Conte hopes to break the convention and offer a offer of no less than 80 million euros for Nunes, and may even be close to his transfer value when joining Liverpool, in order to convince the Premier League giants to let go.

Nuñez joined Liverpool from Benfica for a high price of more than 85 million euros in the summer of 2022, becoming one of the most expensive signings in Liverpool's team history at that time. But in the past season, he has made 47 appearances in various competitions, contributing only 7 goals and 7 assists, and his performance has not met expectations. Despite this, his contract will not expire until June 2028, but Liverpool also said that as long as the offer is appropriate, they are willing to listen to quotes from other clubs, and their psychological price is no less than 80 million euros.

As the coach of the new Serie A championship, Conte hopes to further strengthen the team's lineup to cope with the pressure of multi-line combat. He particularly valued Nunez's physical fitness, impact and sense of smell in front of the goal, and believed that the Uruguayan striker was very suitable for his tactical system. At the same time, Conte also showed a strong interest in Chiesa, hoping to introduce a wing player with breakthrough ability and tactical diversity to further enrich the team's offensive methods.

Naples' signing plan will undoubtedly add more suspense and highlights to the transfer market this summer.
