Liverpool already have 'next Fernando Torres' and Jurgen Klopp is now unleashing him




Emile Heskey has lauded Darwin Nunez and backed the Liverpool star to match the feats Fernando Torres pulled off at Anfield.


Nunez endured a mixed debut season on Merseyside, prompting criticism from fractions of the media despite acclimatising to a new league and language




During the summer, the 24-year-old became the new shirt holder for the number nine


Heskey, who scored 60 goals in 223 appearances for Liverpool, believes Nunez has the capability to become a 20-goal-a-season player.

"I think Darwin Nunez has the potential to score more than 20 goals a season. He's getting the chances and he always makes the correct runs,"


"He has the opportunity, and the rest will be up to him. You can't knock his work rate and his willingness to make things happen. He just needs to perfect that last little bit."


Heskey added:


"I think he's a similar player to Fernando Torres, but Fernando went in with a lot more confidence. Darwin's aim should be to match Fernando's level, and he'll then look to better what Torres did."


"Darwin will have to work on his finishing and develop his hold-up play if he wants to match Torres. Nunez is certainly getting better, though, and I'd say he only has to work on that."
