Marcel Desailly believes former Liverpool star Darwin Nunez has plenty left to prove in the Premier League, naming Chelsea as a possible destination.
The Uruguayan international, who left Anfield in the summer, is said to have emerged as a potential attacking solution for the two clubs as they look to reinforce their forward lines ahead of next season.
Núñez endured an inconsistent spell at Liverpool after joining from Benfica in 2022, producing flashes of explosive quality but struggling for sustained form in Jürgen Klopp’s system.
Despite a respectable goal return across all competitions, the club opted to reshape its attacking unit, leading to his exit. His performances since leaving England — marked by improved finishing and renewed confidence — have now reportedly placed him back on the radar of top-flight sides seeking a powerful, versatile forward
And amid all the speculation and rumours, Desailly has come out and encouraged CHELSEA to consider making a move to sign the former Liverpool star when the transfer window opens up: ‘I’m pleased to see him wanting to come back to European football – it shows money isn’t everything,’ Desailly told Footitalia.
‘A club like Chelsea, or the new Manchester United, would be best for him. He needs to be surrounded by established, confident players who know they’re going to play every weekend and who will give him the ball on the first intention.
‘That’s the small detail – when he makes a run, he needs to get the ball immediately. Otherwise he loses confidence quickly.’
Would Nunez be a good signing for Chelsea?
We all remember how Fernandes Torres was when he arrived here at Stamford Bridge right? The club paid all that money in hope that the Spaniard could score the goals that his potential had, but he failed to do that and that is what Nunez would end up being like.
At Liverpool he played alot, he was given chance after chance after chance to be the 30 goals a season striker that Jurgen Klopp wanted, and he could not do that and that i why Arne Slot let him leave the club.
He would not be a good signing for CHELSEA because he would be a risky addition to the side, plus he would command a high wage because he is getting some serious money in Saudi Arabia.
