Nunez looked a world class performer for Benfica last season and it wouldn’t be surprising to see him seal a big move in the near future.

It now seems we could be seeing him at Old Trafford or St James’ Park next season, in what could be a hugely exciting development, both for those teams and for the Premier League as a whole.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are still in the early days of their new project under wealthy Saudi owners, and this would be some statement that could help the club make major strides towards challenging the established big six.
