Liverpool will need to do some work in the summer to fine-tune a team capable of winning numerous competitions next season.
The Reds were in contention for four major trophies for much of the season, but it appears that the Carabao Cup will be the only addition to the cabinet in 2023/24.
With Arne Slot taking over and Richard Hughes joining as sporting director, Liverpool and FSG will have a busy summer figuring out how to best form their team for 2024/25.
Darwin Nunez, whose recent performances haven’t exactly highlighted his finest side, is one Reds player who may face scrutiny over the off-season and pre-season.
Although Nunez has established himself as a ‘agent of disruption’, he continues to miss too many opportunities and find himself offside far too frequently.
According to a recent Daily Mail article, Liverpool are not looking to offload the £140,000-per-week forward just yet.
According to Lewis Steele, “there is no indication that Liverpool are in a hurry to give up on Nunez after just two seasons.”
Now, talkSPORT analyst Darren Bent has provided his opinion on the £85 million man, and he is enthusiastic about his future prospects.
What did Darren Bent say about Liverpool forward Darwin Nunez?
Bent spoke on talkSPORT (7/5/2024, 4:43pm): “I absolutely like him. I believe he makes solid runs. I understand he may be offside at times, but he has power. If I were a center-back, I wouldn’t want to play against him.”
When asked if Liverpool should sell Nunez if they receive the money they paid for him, Bent replied, “I would give him another year. I honestly would. I believe he will do well.
Liverpool have made significant investments in Nunez, and he has the makings of a premier striker, though there is no doubt that he still needs to improve his finishing.
Let us see what occurs in the coming months. Slot will undoubtedly be interested in seeing what he can accomplish with a player of Nunez’s caliber and work ethic, who continues to score frequently.
