Michael Owen,Jurgen Klopp

Owen exclusively tells the ECHO that he is worried that Nunez might not grow into the lethal goal-getter Liverpool want.

Michael Owen is concerned that Darwin Nunez may not be able to develop into the prolific striker Liverpool fans are hoping for.

Jurgen Klopp described Nunez as an “incredible finisher” in late December, by which time he had scored eight of his 18 goals.READ MORE: Arne Slot could be perfect for midfielder who fell out with manager after Liverpool transfer

“But I think if he continues like he is now, I think people will probably just accept that that's what he's going to be forever. When I first saw him, I thought, geez, he's raw. I expected it obviously. "But with his age, you think to yourself, well, if he’s not learned it by now and I've been saying it for a couple of years now, but probably I'm starting to think that what you see is what you get now.”
