Arsenal have been told that the somewhat surprise signing of Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez could transform the whole dynamic of their team.
Although Nunez has struggled to fit in at Liverpool and make the kind of impact fans would have expected of him, it seems former Reds midfielder Dietmar Hamann could see him adding something to Mikel Arteta’s attack.
Arsenal lack a real number 9 in their team at the moment, leading to links with the likes of Benjamin Sesko and Dusan Vlahovic, as per the Athletic and others.
Hamann also thinks Nunez could be the answer to Arsenal’s problems in that position, though we’re not sure you’d exactly find that many Gooners who’d be too excited about the deal.
Hamann has some admiration for Nunez, even if the Uruguay international is also a somewhat flawed player.
The German feels Nunez can be a handful at times, while his physical presence and pace would transform this Arsenal team.
“If he was a better finisher he could be the best player in the world because at times he is unplayable and he brings others into play. Having said that, for £85m you have to say he was too expensive,” Hamann said of Nunez to BestOffShoreSportsbook, as quoted by the Metro.
He added: “Arsenal would be a transformed team with Darwin Nunez up front. Someone with that physical presence who can stretch teams and create space.
