Scrutiny on Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez is continuing to grow with the forward having made just two starts for Jurgen Klopp’s side since joining from Benfica in a deal worth up to £85million.
The 23-year-old started well, scoring in his first two appearances for Liverpool against Manchester City in the Community Shield and then on the opening day of the Premier League season at Fulham.
However, a moment of madness against Crystal Palace where he headbutted defender Joachim Andersen saw him shown a red card and handed a three-game suspension. Since his return, Nunez has started on the bench for the Reds’ last three matches and saw Diogo Jota introduced ahead of him in Saturday’s 3-3 draw with Brighton.
