Nunez could have been a lot more patient and it might have paid off.Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will have to change his starting line-up with Salah sidelined for several games. However, he can choose Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo, Nunez, etc. Keane believes Nunes can play a key role in helping Liverpool stay competitive in all competitions this season.
Keane, who has scored seven goals in 28 appearances for Liverpool, believes the Reds have enough firepower to continue their league title challenge without Salah. “I think Liverpool have the stamina to win the Premier League,” Keane told Betway. “I thought it would take some time for the new players brought in in the summer to adapt, but they are adapting well and we are winning both the Premier League and the Cup. Mo Salah is obviously a big loss and it will certainly be difficult to replace him, but I think Liverpool can keep the momentum going with the remaining strikers.” “The return of Diogo Iotta is a big plus for them. I really like Darwin Nunes. I think he can be a very good player for Liverpool.
Of course, there is still room for improvement in terms of his scoring ability, but you can see that the fans are really responding to his level of energy and activity.“As a striker you are judged by your goals but I’m sure it will happen because he has everything. “It’s big, strong and fast.”Nunez currently has five Premier League goals this season and eight goals in all competitions. The Uruguay international has provided 10 assists and has become a fan favorite at Anfield since joining from Benfica in 2022.
Former Liverpool player Robbie Keane has given his honest opinion on Darwin Nunez’s ability to help Liverpool win the Premier League. He believes Nunes can step up when Mohamed Salah joins Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations. Keane was once a striker at Anfield but was never treated unfairly, Liverpool selling him back to Tottenham six months later.
