Luis Suarez has revealed he wanted Barcelona to make a move for Liverpool’s big-money signing Darwin Nunez three years ago. Nunez joined the Reds for an initial £64million that could rise to £85m with add-ons, with Liverpool hoping the 22-year-old can step up immediately and help fill the void left by Sadio Mane, who is set to complete his transfer to Bayern Munich this week. A number of clubs were in for Nunez, after a season in which he scored 26 league goals for Benfica, though his fellow Uruguyan Suarez saw the potential before most and wanted to play with the striker at Barcelona.
