Liverpool are keen to sign a forward in the upcoming summer transfer, and a considerable portion of their budget has been assigned for the number 9. However, the Reds are now poised to sign a top forward on a free transfer in the upcoming months.
Darwin Nunez was celebrating wildly at Anfield after the Reds secured the Premier League, but his time at Liverpool is rapidly ticking down ahead of next season.
Liverpool want to sign a new number 9, and Nunez is likely to move on with Al Hilal interested in getting their hands on him before the start of the Club World Cup in June.
The Reds have identified Alexander Isak as their top target, but the club are considering alternative options, and are now close to sealing a free transfer this summer.

Liverpool to seal a deal to sign top striker on a free transfer

Jonathan David has an expiring contract at Lille and is almost certain to leave the French club on a free transfer in the upcoming summer window.
Liverpool are among the clubs that want him, and they are pushing towards securing a deal to sign him in the upcoming window.
According to French radio station RMC, Liverpool are among the six clubs that are working towards trying to convince him to move to England this summer.
The Merseyside giants won the top-flight title and have the edge over their Premier League rivals in the race to land David ahead of next season.
If a deal gets over the line, Liverpool will save enough money to sign one more striker if they want and could still land one of the big-name forwards they are tracking.
David has been prolific this season with 25 goals and 11 assists in all competitions for Lille.
