Darwin Nunez has admitted that he is not performing well and is low on confidence after the Liverpool striker reported for international duty with Uruguay.

And he’s vowed to keep working hard as he hopes to rediscover form while away with his national side.

"I'm happy thinking about the national team, enjoying every minute with it,” he said, as quoted by El Pais.



“These are moments that one goes through in football.

"As I said recently, I'm not someone who throws in the towel because they don't play, but rather I'm going to keep working so I can play.

"I know I'm not performing as well as I should.

It's difficult because when you're doing well, like when I came on against PSG, your confidence changes, with the idea of being able to break it in the next match.

“But then you get a slump, and I'm always there to help my team0mates come back to the national team.

Let him run a lot, play well, and then not be able to score a goal.

"I'm strong in my head, since my family always supports me, and that's the important thing to keep working and bring joy to everyone, like beating Argentina to get the three points.

"(I want) to forget a little about what's happening there (at Liverpool), and besides, there's nothing more beautiful for a player than wearing your country's jersey."

Uruguay host Argentina on Friday (March 21) before travelling to Bolivia on Tuesday (March 25).

"Because I had told him the other day that they were going to play at Boca Juniors' stadium (La Bombonera) and were going to lose.

"Now I don't want him to look at me so he doesn't jeer at me!"
