Rio Ferdinand has been speaking about incoming Manchester United signing Rasmus Hojlund and Liverpool’s big money buy from last summer Darwin Nunez
Rio Ferdinand believes Darwin Nunez will be a “different player” for Liverpool this season having found his feet in the Premier League.
The Uruguayan forward endured a mixed first season at Anfield, showing glimpses of quality while struggling to find form on other occasions. Nunez scored a total of 15 goals in all competitions during his debut campaign, though now faces a fight on his hands to nail down a starting spot in Jurgen Klopp’s squad amid fierce competition for places within the final third.
Following Liverpool’s lead in recruiting a forward with the potential to be a long-term success, Ferdinand’s former club Manchester United recently moved to agree a £72m package deal for Rasmus Hojlund. The 20-year-old only joined Serie A side Atalanta ahead of last season and has now earned himself a high-profile move to Old Trafford, where he will be expected to lead the line for Erik ten Hag’s side.
