Steve McManaman has explained why there will not be any pressure on Darwin Nunez to be an instant success at Liverpool.
The Reds signed the 23-year-old from Benfica last month after agreeing a deal worth up to £85m, which would be a club record. Nunez will wear the No.27 shirt at Anfield, which has been vacated by the departure of Divock Origi, who recently signed for AC Milan.
Nunez’s arrival added further quality to Jurgen Klopp’s forward ranks, despite the departure of Sadio Mane, to Bayern Munich, along with Origi and Takumi Minamino, who has joined Monaco. Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah and Luis Diaz, who signed in a £49m deal from Porto in January, will all be vying for regular starting spots alongside Nunez.
