How can Darwin Núñez help Mohamed Salah improve?

The solution to Liverpool's attacking problems at the start of the season may lie within the squad. Mohamed Salah is having his worst start to a season with the Reds since 2017, having only scored two goals and provided two assists in seven games, something that has German manager Jurgen Klopp and the fans worried.

The departure in the summer of Senegalese striker Sadio Mané, who was sold to Bayern Munich for 33 million euros, left a gaping hole in the Reds' attack. So they signed the young Uruguayan striker Darwin Núñez for 70 million euros from Benfica. But so far he has not offered what was expected as he has only scored one goal and was already in the controversy for an assault on Danish defender Joachim Andersen that cost him three games of suspension.

However, according to journalist Neil Jones, the talented South American could be the solution for the Egyptian star to get back to the level he once showed. Mohamed Salah scored 23 goals last season but has now been unfortunate in front of goal and is no longer an untouchable in Jurgen Klopp's line-ups. That's why he will have to look to pair up with Nunez to get back to his best.

Jones told goal.com that he is confident that Salah can get back on the same page with Nunez as they did during the Community Shield where both players scored and Liverpool beat Manchester City by a score of 3-1. In addition to taking advantage of the fact that Firmino seems to be the same as in previous years, being one of the best in attack.

Luis Diaz can also help Salah

The journalist also pointed out that the contribution of the Colombian Luis Diaz could be fundamental so that Mohamed Salah does not feel all the pressure on him. While Portugal's Diogo Jota will have to offer some answers after several games out through injury.
