Darwin Nunez has replied to every message from Liverpool players on social media after his move to Al-Hilal was confirmed over the weekend.
The Reds negotiated a deal with the Saudi club that guarantees a £46million fee, with the potential to earn an additional £10million through various add-ons. Nunez departed Liverpool after three years making a total of 143 appearances and scoring 40 goals along the way.
On the transfer, Liverpool issued a statement that read: “The 2024-25 term turned out to be his final one with the Reds, and he would complete his career on Merseyside by hoisting the Premier League trophy aloft.
“Nunez’s pair of stoppage-time finishes to snatch victory away at Brentford in January was an undoubted vital moment and highlight of the historic season. Everybody at the club would like to thank Darwin for his contributions and wish him and his family all the best for the future.”
Several of Nunez’s former teammates left him messages on social media, which the Uruguay striker has since responded to on his Instagram stories.
In response to Ibrahima Konate, he wrote: “Thank you so much, I miss you hermanito (little brother).” Nunez responded to Stefan Bajcetic in Spanish, which translates to: “Brother, I will miss you and thanks for those chats we had in the gym, wishing the best for you.”
To Gakpo, Nunez replied: “Thank you brother, all the best for you.” He also added, “Hermano (brother), thank you, all the best to you,” in response to Harvey Elliott.
“Andy, my brother, thank you so much, I’m going to miss your jokes,” Nunez said of Andy Robertson.
On Curtis Jones, the striker said: “My friend, you’re an incredible person, always trying to make me smile with your jokes. I’ll miss you and I wish you the best. Thank you for everything,” followed by a love heart.
