The 24-year-old forward secured two goals during Uruguay’s commanding 3-0 victory against Bolivia in the CONMEBOL World Cup qualifiers this Wednesday. Seasoned striker Luis Suarez, who substituted Nunez in the 73rd minute, specifically praised the Liverpool talent after the game, acknowledging him as among the world’s finest No.9 players.
Addressing reporters post-match, the ex-Barcelona and Liverpool star commented on Nunez, who might eventually inherit his No.9 jersey, saying, “I have one of the premier No.9s globally ahead of me. Our role is to back him and relish his performances. Presently, I’m contributing in a different capacity and I’m content supporting the team.”
Nunez, formerly of Benfica, joined Liverpool in 2022 and in his debut season, featured in 42 matches across various competitions, netting 15 goals. He seems poised to surpass that tally in the 2023-24 season, having already scored seven goals in 17 matches and provided six assists.
Liverpool supporters are now eager for Nunez to replicate his international form at the club level. Jurgen Klopp’s squad is gearing up for a compelling top-of-the-table encounter against Manchester City this Saturday.
