Darwin Nunez has the talent and work rate to be a major hit at Liverpool, according to Mark Lawrenson.
The former Anfield centre-back won five league titles and one European Cup with the Reds, during a trophy-laden seven season spell on Merseyside. And in a recent interview with Paddy Power, the former Match of the Day pundit ran the rule over Liverpool's new Uruguayan striker.
Lawrenson said: “Liverpool hope Darwin Nunez will hit the ground running. I saw both the Liverpool fixtures against Benfica in the Champions League, and in all honesty, he tore us apart. He’s lightning quick and he can play anywhere across the front three. I also don’t see (Roberto) Firmino leaving because then they'd be a little bit thin on the ground.
