Newcastle United have offered around £50m for Benfica's Manchester United-linked striker Darwin Nunez, according to a report.
The Uruguayan is reportedly being pursued by a host of top European clubs following his excellent season in Portugal, with the likes of the Red Devils being linked with interest in acquiring his signature.
Bayern Munich are also considering rivalling the Premier League side for the 22-year-old, depending on the future of their own striker Robert Lewandowski.
However, Newcastle are the latest club to express an interest in the striker, with Foot Mercato suggesting that a bid of over €60m (£50m) has already been tabled.
Nunez has registered 32 goals and three assists in 37 games across all competitions this season, including one goal in each of his side's two legs against Liverpool in their Champions League exit recently.
Meanwhile, Newcastle are set to be busy in the upcoming summer transfer window, with their new Saudi ownership set to oversee their first full campaign in charge next season.
