Nunez registered 34 goals in 41 appearances for Benfica last term (across all competitions)
A good starting point, perhaps, may be to recognise that Jurgen Klopp’s men are getting a lot more than just promise from the off – this isn’t a gamble, as has been proved to a great extent by the faith shown in a £64m up front fee.
To put it simply, as far as the club is concerned: no roll of the dice will have occurred when evaluating the merits of agreeing a deal that could jump up to £85m in total if the conditions of the add-ons agreed are met.
“For me, he is already one of the best strikers in the world,” Gonzalez told the Empire of the Kop.
“In these years that he was in Almeria and Benfica, he improved a lot in all aspects, both physical and football.
“He is a very young player with impressive qualities. I think he is a player who has no ceiling!
“[By] having teachers, coaches and teammates who make him feel good, he can continue to grow as a footballer. Without a doubt!”

For Gabriel Gonzalez, Liverpool under the renowned German tactician very much seems the right place for the former Penarol starlet to reach even greater heights.
“It is difficult to talk about the future and if I believe that the Premier is a league where he can develop his best football,” the trainer continued. “I think that having a coach like Jurgen Klopp, having the players that Liverpool has, the history that the club has – I think that all of this will help Darwin continue to improve and show the best football version of himself.”

To me, it looks like his overall play and finishing improves as last season goes on.
Thought he was brilliant at Anfield. Got about all his shots on goal or scored, and looked dangerous every time he had the ball. Not easy to score on Alisson who is probably the best goalkeeper in the World one on one.

Rickie Lambert was on the radio this morning saying he was at that game and Nunez gave Virgil a harder time than pretty much anyone else he (Lambert) has seen.
 
He's currently at 1675 altitude and 65km from Chester Airport.

Medical and leans incoming.

Okay, plane got diverted to Blackpool. Maybe he's meeting Klopp and Virg on the tower?

Or Reddit Internet sleuths are hopeless.

Nah he's clearly scoping out the venue for when he inevitably appears on 'Strictly'...

There will be created a Darwin/Haaland rivalry in the media and amongst fans now I reckon.

There already is and he hasn't even signed for us yet.

And there will be loads of fans and journalists that reference the fact that Haaland was cheaper... so there is that element of stupidity to it as well.

Haaland will score loads for City if he stays fit so hopefully Nunez does likewise so the argument largely becomes moot.

Yeah, I saw the Athletic ran a story earlier today were they said Haaland was just 51 mill £. Its already happening.
