Former Liverpool midfielder Didi Hamann argues that Darwin Nunez would’ve been a good fit for Arsenal who are dealing with an injury crisis and shortage of strikers.
I think the team is well equipped, but the lack of a centre-forward is obviously what I think harms their chances,” Hamann said about Arsenal.
“And I think even Darwin Nunez, I think Nunez would be gold for Arsenal. Because I think if you’ve got somebody up top who bullies defenders, who draws defenders in, he always gets the attention of two or three defenders.
Obviously, he’s a big unit. He’s quick. The game changes. If you’ve got somebody up top with a physical presence, with pace, it’s a different ballgame.
They always find space, Arsenal, but it also makes it easier for the likes of Saka and Martinelli and Odegaard when they get into these pockets because quick players stretch teams. They simply haven’t got it.
“I think even a Nunez would be a brilliant addition to the squad, but it’s too late for that now and they have to make do with what they have.”
