Manchester United’s pursuit of Benfica striker Darwin Nunez will hinge on whether the club are able to qualify for the Champions League this season, reports claim.
A host of elite clubs are circling in an attempt to snap up the in-demand Nunez this summer, it is understood, including several of United’s Premier League rivals.
Nunez is set to move on in the next window, and his 26 goals from 33 appearances this term have sparked a bidding war which includes struggling United.

The Red Devils, who remain on the hunt for a permanent manager, will have to claw themselves back into the top four if they are to have any hope of recruiting the ace.
The Telegraph have reported that Benfica are eager to clear up the future of the forward as soon as possible, and they are expected to bank a sizeable figure for him.
Having dazzled in the Champions League this year, the 22-year-old Nunez is unsurprisingly keen to continue plying his trade in the competition next season.
