Darwin Nunez’s recent interaction, or lack thereof, with Jurgen Klopp sparked speculation among Liverpool fans, with many interpreting it as a possible snub towards the departing manager.
However, Nunez quickly addressed the situation, insisting that there were no ill feelings towards Klopp.
In an interview with Uruguayan broadcaster Polideportivo, Nunez expressed his surprise at Klopp’s departure and conveyed his respect and well-wishes for the outgoing manager.
He acknowledged the unexpected nature of Klopp’s exit and expressed his desire for Klopp to have left Liverpool on a high note, with silverware to his name.
Nunez’s clarification comes in the wake of his decision to remove all Liverpool-related posts from his Instagram account, a move he attributed to the inevitability of facing criticism as a professional athlete.
The scene of Nunez and Klopp dancing together at the end-of-season party further dispelled any notions of discord between player and manager.
It’s evident that Nunez holds Klopp in high regard, despite any momentary misunderstandings or misinterpretations.
