Darwin Nunez has been told he will not get it at Liverpool, and the Merseyside club has been urged to discard the Uruguayan striker and sign a player like Fernando Torres and Luis Suarez. Nunez, who joined the Reds from Benfica in 2022, has struggled to find his groove at the Premier League club.
In the ongoing season, he has scored seven goals in 43 appearances across competitions. While he has mostly played as a substitute, he has hardly impacted the game coming on from the bench.
Speaking on Optus Sport’s Kelly and Wright Show, former Arsenal striker Ian Wright opined that Liverpool need to get rid of Darwin Nunez even though he might have garnered the love from fans.
Wright said:
According to Lewis Steele of the Daily Mail, Liverpool are eager to sign a striker amid Darwin Nunez’s poor run of form and Diogo Jota’s fitness issues. While Nunez’s struggles in the final third have persisted, Jota has dealt with fitness issues as the season has progressed.
Steele wrote in his column for the Daily Mail:
Since Nunez moved to Anfield, he has scored 40 goals and provided 26 assists in 139 appearances across competitions.
An ardent Chelsea fan, Ezekiel’s journey as a football fan began in his childhood, witnessing Ronaldinho dazzle with his skills. His interest in the beautiful game deepened after Nigeria were knocked out of the 2010 FIFA World Cup; he was impressed with the Super Eagles’ fighting spirit in their 2-2 Group B draw against South Korea. Some other World Cup matches which have left a deep impact on him were Belgium’s incredible comeback against Japan in the round of 16 of the 2018 version and the 2022 final.
Lionel Messi is the one true GOAT for Ezekiel and he also follows the Major League Soccer and the Saudi Pro League owing to him and Cristiano Ronaldo. When not writing, he spends his free time deepening his SEO knowledge and watching skits.
