Darwin Nunez is set for a fight for a place in Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool team next season, with his manager's comments hinting at a preference for certain players among his forward ranks.
Nunez has started 19 Premier League matches this season, with the £85million signing from Benfica scoring nine goals for Liverpool. However, the recent return from injury of Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz has seen a drop in the amount of minutes given to the 23-year-old, who has not played 90 minutes in a match since February.
The Reds' record signing has shown a good eye for goal in his first season at the club, but has seen more action due to the amount of injuries suffered by those around him. Long-term injuries to the likes of Jota and Diaz meant that the Uruguayan has often had to play in a left-wing role as well as in a more natural central position.
