Uruguay star Darwin Nunez has starred at international level this summer and former Chelsea and Tottenham star Gus Poyet believes Liverpool and Arne Slot now know what they need to do to bring out the best in the striker.
Former Uruguay international Gus Poyet has suggested that Liverpool need to assure Darwin Nunez of his starting position in order to see the striker's international form replicated at club level. Nunez, who joined the Reds in the summer of 2022 in a deal potentially worth a record-breaking fee, has netted 33 times in 96 appearances. However, doubts have been raised following a 10-match goalless streak in his second season.
I think he had that extra bit of confidence and security that he's going to be playing all the time.' Nunez's missed chances during the run-in harmed Liverpool's title chances under Jurgen Klopp , with the Reds finishing third in their manager's final season in charge. Arne Slot has since come into the dugout, though, and the Dutchman will have decisions to make.
