Darwin Nunez reacts as Liverpool exit confirmed
Darwin Nunez could be in the final weeks of his Liverpool career.
The 25-year-old has had an underwhelming season at Anfield, which has led to speculation surrounding his future on Merseyside.
Arne Slot‘s side are set for a major overhaul in the summer despite securing the Premier League title as the Dutchman puts his own stamp on the club.
However, one decision has been taken out of his hands after a Reds star announced he will leave the club at the end of the season.
Nunez reacts as Alexander-Arnold announcement made
Trent Alexander-Arnold has won everything possible with his boyhood club and will depart Anfield at the end of the season.
The 26-year-old has constantly been linked with a free transfer to Real Madrid, and it appears like the path to the Bernabeu is clear after the latest announcement.
The homegrown star has decided to leave on the expiry of his contract after 20 years with the Reds and posted an emotional video on Instagram.
Nunez reacted to the post by liking it.
Liverpool can still thrive without Alexander-Arnold
The England star is one of the best in world football with the ball at his feet, and finding his replacement will be a difficult task for Slot and sporting director Richard Hughes.
Conor Bradley has been touted as the natural successor to the Three Lions ace but the Northern Irishman has suffered with injuries regularly this season and there are question marks over his future as a starter.

The Reds will be fine without their local ace in the team, as they will have made a succession plan as soon as it became apparent that there was a chance that he would not renew terms and would move on to greener pastures.
Fenway Sports Group are set to back Slot in the transfer market to put the L4 outfit in a great position to retain their title and potentially reach even higher heights than they did in his first season in English football.
If they do so without Alexander-Arnold, it may prove even sweeter for supporters if they are successful after he has departed.
