Liverpool Star’s Cryptic Exit Antics…
Football’s favourite soothsayer, Sir Fabrizio Romano, has once again donned his mystical tweeting turban to ignite the rumour rocket regarding Darwin Nunez. With the grace of a ballerina and the timing of a cuckoo clock, Romano relaunched a vintage February tweet dripping with mysterious prophecies about Nunez’s Liverpool escape. On that fateful day, Nunez spun his own web of enigma by dropping monochrome training snaps like a moody rock star, sparking gossip galore.
Rumours buzz around Nunez like bees to honey or, more fittingly, like defenders to a striker with dodgy goal stats. Last week he was said to have had a heated debate with the airy-fairy football gaffer Arne Slot—but surprise, surprise, Slot says Nunez was just out of sorts, battling the ultimate villain: Day-Before-The-Match-Itis. With a transfer to a Saudi Arabian wonderland, alongside footy legends like Ronaldo and ManĂ©, failing in January, Nunez’s saga only thickens more than a hearty gravy.
Despite being bought for a treasure chest of €75 million, Nunez is struggling like a penguin on a hot day in his third season. His goal-scoring radar is wonkier than a banana on roller skates; with just five goals to his name and a nose-diving NpXG+XA stat, his once-golden chances seem to have the same fate as a missed open goal. Nunez’s Liverpool odyssey continues, while Mohamed Salah, the Pharaoh of Football, reinforces his throne with a new contract, leaving poor Darwin scrambling for a top-flight seat.
