Arne Slot could be about to unleash the Darwin Nunez Liverpool have wanted all along

For Darwin Nunez, May 2024 will feel all too familiar.

The Liverpool striker has enjoyed, on paper at least, a breakthrough year at Anfield. With 31 goals, including 18 strikes in all competitions, he has already improved on his first campaign at the club, when he scored 15 goals and was involved in 19 in total.




And with two games left to end Jurgen Klopp’s season and reign, Nunez could improve on his tally. It could represent a quiet improvement, but as always with Nunez, his Liverpool career has rarely been quiet.

Indeed, May looks similar to last year, when his playing time dropped and Klopp turned to more reliable and consistent players to see Liverpool’s season through. In turn, talk of Nunez’s form has grown as the striker’s seemingly polarizing nature leads to ongoing debate about his usefulness to the Reds.

Nunez’s absence from the Liverpool squad and the reaction to his poor form led to him removing all images of tomatoes from his Instagram profile and increasing speculation surrounding his future.

And with Klopp, often thought to be Nunez’s biggest supporter at Anfield, ready to leave the club when the curtain comes down on his reign after Liverpool host Wolves on May 19, the Uruguayan would be forgiven for thinking this thing is just as well. on Merseyside.
