If Nunez is too much of a little bitch to come and compete with a 37 year old then he's not got the right attitude to play for a top club. I don't believe that's the case, he would rightly back himself to get in the team whether in the coming year or the one after.
Darwin Núñez / signs for Liverpool

I can see him going to Liverpool. We won't be buying a £60m+ back up to Ronaldo with so many other gaps to fill.
Ronaldo is the back-up.
I can see that too. We might end up getting Haller or Richarlison
It's really not the kind of players Klopp likes in his front 3, far too clumsy with his feet, no hold up abilities, I'd be very surprised.
Only issue with him is the fee, just can't make that this summer. I'm sure some exciting forwards can be gotten for cheaper.
If we pay 60m for him, he isn't going to be the back-up.
If it happens then my guess would be we see some sort of set-up where both Nunez and Ronaldo play in a lot of games. I say this having noted Rangnick saying that Ronaldo doesn't actually want to play as a centre-forward.
And beyond that, Ronaldo will be benched more next season as he was overplayed this season due to lack of options.

Mane replacement at Liverpool
I've noticed a weird obsession on here with saying any player we are linked with will end up at City or Liverpool.
He knows he will have a settling period of a year -- Ronaldo wont be here beyond next season.
Klopp doesn't really require technical player like Pep does. He wanted Werner who is not technically gift with his feet. Klopp system is gegenpress and this guy is ideal for gegenpressing.
I thought this guy did not have much of a technique whereas Mane's is superb.
We love to hate ourselves here at the CAF. We love to bitch and moan at every opportunity, analyse any positive news story and try and spin it into a negative, make said positive news story a “PR piece” by “their mates in the media”. Believe every negative news story, regardless of reliability as if Jesus himself came down and told us.
Then we bitch and moan about how good City/Liverpool are whilst continuing to berate and criticise how shockingly shit our own players are. I’ve never known a fanbase to continually drag our own players down.
I cannot wait until ETH goes on a rough patch. Because he will. Then I’m going to bask and bathe in the self pity & wallow about how much of a fraud he is and we should’ve got Poch. It’s going to be incredible.
like who?
Ronaldo will play all league games. Plenty of cup games to be had. Leads me to believe we’d be looking at a cheaper ‘prospect’ right now, as doesn’t appear we have much of a transfer budget and need to move on Martial to raise funds and/or free up wages.
If we sign Nunez it's to be a starter. Every signing we make this summer will go straight into the first team.
This signing makes perfect sense. Learn from Ronaldo for a year then become the main man. We will need to buy a backup striker next Summer though.
I think this guy would need at least a year to learn how to control a football properly at the highest level!
From what I've read his first touch lets him down in moments but he's not a donkey like Lukaku.
If we decide to sign him - he probably isn't.
If we decide not to sign him - he probably is worth the investment
We can't expect to pay over £60m for a forward without him first needing to learn how to play football from Ronaldo.
If Benfica value him at more than 50mil and he does not have a good first touch I hate to see what they would value him at if he did!
If we decide to sign him - he probably isn't.
If we decide not to sign him - he probably is worth the investment
So true.No, they won't.
Third or fourth goal on, looks just like Cavani.
Wonder if Liverpool will be in for him. Klopp and Van Dijk have praised him highly.
They should do. Only signings we should be making are the ones to improve the starting 11. The striker signing is the only one that can be debatable. Ronaldo will still want to be the main man next season. Ten Hag has played 2 up front formations before though so he could mix it up in different games depending on the opponent.
How does Uruguay keep producing quality strikers?
You're going to look so stupid saying things like this next season
Why do people talk like he's a pub level player? it's the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
Thank god Andy Cole isn't playing in the modern day, people wouldn't want him either.
Hello there MichealIf we decide to sign him - he probably isn't.
If we decide not to sign him - he probably is worth the investment
Whitwell is meant to be reliable isn’t he?
Tailor made for Liverpool, surely they'll be in for him.
There’s no doubt Darwin will evolve in to a top striker.
Yes but he didnt give a big scoop. It was a throwaway line in a podcast. They joked twitter aggregator accounts will jump on the line, and so it happened
I am also guessing Liverpool will go for him to replace Mane. He sore goals and is good at pressing, just that he is poor in technique.
Stealing a reputation
There's lots of doubts. There's pretty high chances he's hugely overperforming this season. The problem is, if he doesn't score he doesn't bring much to the plate outside of a lot of running.

I think the bloke who runs my nearest shop is a better source for transfer news than the portuguese press.
