Darwin Nunez explains message he will send Luis Suarez after completing Liverpool transfer

Darwin Nunez has revealed he'll bend the ear of Luis Suarez over the next few weeks to help him become a success at Liverpool.

Nunez has followed in the steps of his fellow Uruguayan by taking on the challenge of leading Liverpool's attack after completing his transfer from Benfica on Tuesday.

Suarez scored 82 goals in 133 appearances for the Reds having signed from Ajax for £22.8million in January 2011.

And asked if he'd the chance to talk with Suarez ahead of completing his move, Nunez said to liverpoolfc.com: "No, not yet, I've not had a chance to be in touch with him just yet. But I'm sure when everything comes out on social media, I'll give him a call or I'll send him a photo that I've taken where he's there in the background in a picture.

"I'll send that to him and we'll have a bit of a chat and I'll ask him lots of questions so he can offer his support and help because he's a real reference to me because he's a Uruguayan footballer who made history at Liverpool.

"But, for sure, I'll get the opportunity soon to call him and have a chat with him."
