Darwin Nunez is Liverpool's new No.9 and the first problem he faces

The new role that Darwin Núñez will have is to be a determining factor in the area, and that the nine goals he scored in his first season in the Premier League, are the impetus to improve and try to fill the void that the last bearer of this dorsal had, Roberto Firmino. With Bobby's departure, the '9' passes into Firmino's hands, and even without playing, he is already losing out.

Before Roberto Firmino, there were two giants like Luis Suarez and Fernando Torres, who through their performances and goals, won the affection of the loyal Anfield fans. El Pistolero, in his final year, scored 31 goals while El Niño, scored 65 goals in 101 league games for Liverpool.

Darwin arrived on Merseyside for 75 million, plus another 25 million in variables, which according to Diario Marca was the most expensive signing in the club's history. His 34 goals in 41 games in the 21/22 season made the Red's win the bidding for the striker against teams like PSG, Chelsea or United.

Darwin looking to salvage the honour he left behind in his first year

Núñez with his new number '9' in Liverpool will also have a revenge with his national team, since in the last World Cup, Uruguay did not pass from the Group Stage, being one of the biggest failures of the tournament. With the arrival of Marcelo Bielsa as new coach, Darwin is one of the jewels that command the new generation in South America.
