The striker fired a shot over the bar from close range in Wednesday's match, failing to give his side the lead with the game poised at 2-2.

Darwin Nunez has only scored six times for Liverpool so far this season. Arne Slot has criticized him recently and a big transfer decision could await in the summer.

Arne Slot has added to his criticism of Darwin Nunez by saying it was unacceptable to him that the striker did not work hard enough in each of his last two appearances. The Liverpool head coach was critical of the £85m forward’s effort in the 2-2 draw at Aston Villa, when he missed an open goal.
