The end for Nunez at Liverpool

Nunez's form at Liverpool has been inconsistent.

Not only Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah, many other Liverpool stars also face uncertain futures. The "The Kop" leadership, under the management of sporting director Richard Hughes, is planning to clean up the squad.

Sky Sports have revealed that Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez could be sold, with Nunez's case seen as the most urgent. Liverpool's record £85m signing from Benfica in 2022 is at a crossroads.

After 88 Premier League appearances, he scored just 25 goals - a figure that pales in comparison to the 84 goals in 94 matches scored by Erling Haaland, who joined Manchester City at the same time. Nunez is now considered a failure of the Anfield team.

Under Slot, Nunez has fallen further behind, scoring just seven goals in all competitions this season. While his game remains energetic, the Uruguayan striker lacks sharpness and decisiveness in the penalty area. An impressive double against Brentford in the Premier League in January has been a rare bright spot for Nunez this season.

Rare flashes of brilliance have not been enough to save his Anfield career. With a salary of £140,000 a week, Nunez has cost Liverpool a fortune since joining. Al-Nassr from the Saudi Pro League made an offer for Nunez in January, but Liverpool rejected the offer as they did not want to lose a key player mid-season.

Now, when the Anfield team wants to refresh the squad in the summer with names like Alexander Isak or Gyokeres, selling Nunez becomes a priority for coach Slot to build a new squad.
