'I imagined' - Darwin Nunez makes Anfield admission after Liverpool move

New Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez says he 'imagined' playing at Anfield for the club when the Reds faced Benfica in the Champions League last season.

Jurgen Klopp 's side faced the Portuguese outfit in the quarter-final stage of the competition last term before they went on to make the final. Liverpool won 6-4 on aggregate, courtesy of an impressive away performance handing them a two-goal cushion.
