Darwin Nunez's girlfriend sent the star striker an emotional message after his move to Merseyside was finalised.
The 22-year-old became Liverpool FC's latest signing this week after the Reds reached an agreement with Benfica that could rise up to £85m. Jurgen Klopp's side will pay a set fee of £64.1million (€75m) with a possible £21.3m (€25m) in add-ons depending on individual success, ranging from reaching appearance landmarks, scoring goals to winning the Champions League.
Nunez spoke of his delight after his move was confirmed. He said: "I’m really happy and delighted to be here at Liverpool. It’s a massive club.

"I’ve played against Liverpool and I’ve seen them in lots of games in the Champions League, and it’s my style of play. There are some great players here and I think it’s going to suit my style of play here.
"It's great for any player that a manager can improve and polish you as a player, and I think that Klopp is going to help me hugely. I think the players themselves - like Firmino and the other experienced players - are going to help me greatly too. It will be great that Klopp can show me lots more things."
Away from the pitch, the new number 27 is in a relationship with long-term partner, Lorena Manas. The two welcomed a son named Darwin in January and Lorena regularly shares updates from their happy family life on Instagram.
She has shared a a snap on the social media platform of her and Nunez at the AXA Training Centre as the Uruguayan striker wears the new Liverpool FC kit. She captioned the post "te amo", which translates to "love you".
