Robbie Fowler explains why "raw" Darwin Nunez is an £85m ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Jurgen Klopp has struck early in the transfer market with the signing of Uruguay striker Darwin Nunez and Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has given his ...

“Nunez arrives at Anfield with more a striker’s mentality than Salah or Mane did because he’s more used to playing centrally, he’s more used to playing in the penalty area and finishing. And I think with the potential Nunez has, then if he develops as you hope he would under Klopp, then he could be frightening too.” And Fowler believes Nunez, as a more natural centre forward, is gifted with the qualities to provide the finish that has been lacking in the biggest games with a view to delivering even more trophies. But Fowler believes Klopp’s record in developing forwards into goalscorers is so good that it gives Nunez a real chance of reaching the levels of some of the greats. But you look at the biggest games and they didn’t always have that goalscoring edge. That was evident in the three finals Liverpool reached in the past season - where they had an incredible, and record-breaking, 76 shots on goal, but failed to find the net once.

Erling Haaland and Darwin Núñez transfer difference clear as ... (Liverpool.com)

On Tuesday, Liverpool announced the signing of Darwin Núñez from Benfica for what could prove to be a club-record fee. The Reds will pay an initial £64m for ...

The reality is clear: he will prove to be much more expensive than Núñez. Haaland, by contrast, will slot in straight in at the top of City’s wage structure. But the remaining £10m is linked to the player’s individual feats, the number of goals he scores and Liverpool’s success as a team. Yes, there will no doubt be additional payments to Núñez and his entourage too, but consider the disparity in wages. In terms of a base fee, he has cost the champions considerably less — £51m. The biggest transfer in the Reds’ history up to now, of course, is Virgil van Dijk’s £75m arrival from Southampton.

Erling Haaland v Darwin Nunez – How the Premier League's new ... (Redditch Advertiser)

Both players are more of a traditional number nine, which is a slight departure for Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp from the tactics they have employed recently.

In a City side which scored 99 times in the Premier League last season he will get a multitude of chances and it would be surprising for him not to remain prolific. Guardiola persisted primarily with a false nine, rotating between the likes of Raheem Sterling, Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden, with Gabriel Jesus infrequently used, but an out-and-out goal-scorer like Haaland will offer a different, more traditional option. On the face of it City. Haaland, at £51million, is cheaper, a year younger and has more of a proven pedigree, even at the age of 21.

Due to his size and physical build, he also can occupy the center forward position, a role he fulfills in a 4-4-2 scheme. His full name is Darwin Gabriel Nunez Ribeiro and he is 22 years old. In the Portuguese team, he played 84 games, scored 47 goals, and provided 16 assists. At the age of 20, he signed for Almeria. There he scored 16 goals in 32 games played. He managed to debut as a professional at the end of 2017, but the joy turned into sadness in seconds: the cursed injury suffered in that knee left sequelae, and his kneecap took its toll. At the age of 16, he suffered a ruptured cruciate ligament while playing for Peñarol's 3rd Division and considered quitting soccer.

Liverpool and Klopp will hope that last line proves correct, with Firmino's contract set to expire in 2023. I can't wait to be here with my teammates, training alongside them and getting to know them so that things can go well for us as a team.

Luis Suarez sends message to Darwin Nunez after Liverpool transfer (Metro)

Luis Suarez has congratulated Darwin Nunez on his move to Liverpool and has backed the former Benfica frontman to beat his goal tally.

In his unveiling interview, Nunez revealed he would reach out to Suarez to get some advice about playing at Anfield, saying: ‘I’ve not had a chance to be in touch with him just yet. But instead of paying now €80m, €90m or €100m, they would’ve paid €15m or €20m and have him there as a substitute.’ I know a thing or two about forwards.
