Nunez joined the Reds for an initial 75 million euros ($87 million, £65 million) from Benfica three years ago but has failed to live up to that price tag.
The Uruguayan has scored 40 goals in 143 appearances but slipped down the pecking order at Anfield under both Jurgen Klopp and Arne Slot.
According to transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano, Al-Hilal will pay an initial 53 million euros for the 26-year-old.
