At Anfield, he is expected to be more of a centre-forward than a right-winger. Various clubs are interested in Uruguayan international Darwin Nunez and he could leave the team in the transfer market this summer.
He will not cost a transfer fee and his salary can be expected to be lower than other targets, making him easier on Liverpool’s wallets. So which club will the 25-year-old forward play for next season after his results in France…?
25-year-old forward Jonathan David has played for LOSC Lille since 2020, making more than 200 appearances and scoring 100 goals. The departure of the striker, who has also scored more than 30 goals for Canada, has been hectic.
His contract with the French club runs until the end of the season. Strong clubs across Europe are eyeing the fast-footed attacker with scoring potential, and a fierce battle is brewing for him this summer. Negotiations are probably underway and a step up to one of the clubs is inevitable.
Liverpool are reportedly among the clubs interested, but former Portuguese defender José Fonte, who spent almost a decade in England as a player, said he would like to see him join Arsenal, Chelsea or Liverpool.
“I’d love to see Jonathan David at Arsenal, I think he would thrive there. Arsenal are crying out for a striker with his qualities, they play good football and they would suit him perfectly.”
“Chelsea have a good young squad with up and coming players, that would be another good option for him if it isn’t Arsenal.”
“I could also see him at Liverpool if Mohamed Salah leaves, although Salah plays on the right, David has pace, finishing ability, link-up play, he plays like Arne Slot likes to.”
“At the moment I wouldn’t want him to join a club like Manchester United during a really difficult situation.”
