Darwin Núñez transfer to Liverpool highlights attacking talent in Portugal’s Primeira Liga

The secret is out. Portugal’s Primeira Liga is where Europe’s top clubs are turning for some of the continent’s top attacking talent.

At least the cash-rich ones of the English Premier League are doing so.

Last week, Liverpool signed Uruguayan forward Darwin Núñez from Benfica for an up-front fee of $79 million, with potentially another $26 million in add-ons if certain requirements are met.
