Darwin Nunez, forward - Liverpool FC
Flexible forward Darwin Nunez was added to Liverpool FC's potent array of attacking options when he joined in the summer of 2022.
Nunez arrived at Anfield from Benfica, for whom he scored 48 goals in 85 appearances across two successful seasons.
Uruguay international Nunez moved to Benfica from UD Almeria, who he joined in the summer of 2019 from Club Atletico Penarol in his homeland.
Nunez progressed through the youth ranks at Penarol and would go on to register 22 appearances for them after making his first-team debut by replacing former Red Maxi Rodriguez in a match versus River Plate Montevideo in November 2017.
His senior bow for Uruguay came in October 2019, shortly after his switch to Almeria, and he marked the occasion with a goal.
