Liverpool may not wait long for their own Vinícius Jr as Cristiano Ronaldo can repeat
Brazilian winger Vinícius Júnior transformed his form at the Santiago Bernabéu and became a mainstay of the winning side Real Madrid. Liverpool stars can follow
It’s fair to say Darwin Núñez’s best moments have come in spurts this season as the Uruguayan striker adjusts to life at Liverpool.
The former Benfica star has certainly given glimpses of his undeniable talent in his first season at Anfield, but perhaps he would like a glimpse of the direction of an opponent he is likely to face in the weeks to come. come when the Reds vs Real Madrid face off in the Champions League. Championship round of 16. Liverpool will be only too aware of the talents of Los Blancos winger Vinícius Júnior, who was on his way to glory in Europe last year and scored the winning goal as his side lifted the League of Nations trophy. champions at the expense of Liverpool.
However, what may have escaped some observers is that the Brazilian hasn’t done everything during his time at Madrid. Contrary to his standout performances over the past year and a half, the 22-year-old struggled to reach the heights in his first three seasons, scoring just seven goals in 82 league games during that span.
Viní Júnior’s initial troubles in the all-white shirt are all forgotten now and the 22-year-old continued his knack for making the difference in tough games, scoring the winning goal and scoring twice as Real Madrid beat the club Saudi Al-Hilal. in hand for Saturday’s FIFA Club World Cup final in Morocco.
However, the fact that the Brazilian initially struggled to make a name for himself at Madrid should serve as inspiration for Núñez, who is slowly starting to show the kind of form that inspired Jurgen Klopp to break with a potential 101 million dollars (84 million pounds / 95 million euros) to be separated).
This verdict in no way diminishes the Uruguayan’s contributions during his short tenure at Anfield. However, it would be fair to say that it looks like the best is yet to come from Núñez, who has so far shown his best qualities at times rather than constantly in a red shirt. As with all confrontations of this nature, there are of course differences in the context and circumstances involved. That said, both talents arrived at their clubs at a relatively young age with huge fees on their heads, plus the fact that both arrived as club legends left: Sadio Mané and Cristiano Ronaldo left in same summers in which Núñez and Viní Júnior signed, respectively.
With 10 goals in 27 appearances in all competitions so far this season, and particularly impressive since taking up a role on the left side of Liverpool’s three fronts, Núñez has certainly shown that he has more than enough skills to succeed at Anfield.
There is no doubt that expectations were high when he arrived and remain so, but there is a lesson to be learned from the fate of Viní Júnior, who can now easily rank among the best in the world in his position. Ronaldo has big shoes to fill, but now he’s on the right track. Patience is sometimes hard to find in football. In Núñez’s case, however, it will be reassuring to see the Brazilian’s rise to prominence, which he is set to face in the coming weeks.
