Former Liverpool striker Luis Suarez got in touch with current Reds forward Darwin Nunez following his red card against Crystal Palace and has now revealed exactly what he was told by his compatriot
Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez has hailed former Red Luis Suarez for his advice in the aftermath of his red card against Crystal Palace earlier this season.
The former Benfica man was given his marching orders just two games into his Premier League career for a brutal headbutt on Eagles defender Joachim Andersen. The red card saw Nunez miss out on the following three league games amid his indifferent start to life with the Reds.
Whilst his sending off triggered plenty of reaction from across the footballing landscape, one man that did offer his advice to Nunez was former Liverpool striker and countryman Suarez.
He suggested that the striker’s treatment in the top flight of English football could only get worse. Speaking in August, the veteran striker said: “At his age, already being at Liverpool, it is to applaud him. He has to enjoy this stage, continue to give him, continue learning from what happened to him the other day.
