According to the Daily Mail, people within Liverpool do not consider Darwin Nunez to be struggling, despite the significant time Arne Slot has been spending with the forward on the training ground.
Liverpool signed Nunez from Benfica for a substantial transfer fee in 2022, with high expectations. So far, the Uruguayan striker has featured in 128 games for the Reds.
Nunez has struggled to justify his hefty price tag under Jurgen Klopp’s management, and he has continued to fail to produce regular goals under Slot’s guidance. Some fans have expressed concerns that he may not be up to the mark.
Nunez’s Struggles and Potential Transfer Interest
The Uruguayan has only started seven times for Liverpool in the league this season, and questions have been raised about his future at Anfield. Saudi outfit Al Nassr has shown interest in the center-forward and approached Liverpool in the winter transfer window, but their proposal was rejected by Slot’s side.
It has been suggested that Al Nassr could renew their interest in Nunez during the summer transfer window, and Liverpool might have a decision to make regarding his future.
Liverpool’s Perspective on Nunez’s Performance
Despite Nunez’s lack of goals this season and the external perception that he is not meeting the required standards, Liverpool’s internal view is that the center-forward is not struggling. Merseyside outfit boss Slot is dedicating a significant amount of time on the training ground with Nunez to improve his form.
The key question will be how influential Nunez can be over the remainder of the season, as this could be a crucial factor in whether Liverpool decide to cash in on him during the summer transfer window.
