Darwin Nunez has been tipped to become “one of the world’s top players” immediately after Liverpool teammate Thiago Alcantara admitted he was “jealous” of the Uruguayan.
The striker completed a big-money move to Anfield last summer from Benfica and has endured a rollercoaster season. Despite the Reds’ struggles in the Premier League this term, he has still managed to score 14 goals in all competitions.
Nunez is second only behind Egyptian sensation Mo Salah in the battle to be Liverpool’s top scorer for the campaign. And after some promising performances in his maiden season with the club, ex-Liverpool forward Mark Gonzalez is tipping the striker to go right to the top.
