Darwin Nunez's fairytale beginning with Al-Hilal rolls on – and he's ensuring everybody's aware of it.

The Uruguayan striker departed Liverpool during the summer in a £46.2m switch to Saudi Arabia.

Nunez, 26, got off the mark at the weekend as he netted in a 2-2 stalemate with Al-Qadsiah.



The forward then bagged another as Al-Hilal kicked off their Asian Champions League Elite journey in midweek against Al-Duhail.

Having begun amongst the replacements, Nunez was brought on at half-time with his team trailing 1-0 to their Qatari rivals.

And it didn't take him long to blast home from Hamad Al-Yami's delivery to equalise.

French international Theo Hernandez netted 10 minutes later to swing the match in Al-Hilal's direction.

Nunez instantly turned to social media to express his joy over his latest effort and also remind Liverpool supporters of the talent he possesses.

He posted several photos of him celebrating with the message: "Vamos," accompanied by a blue heart.

Barcelona ace and Nunez's Uruguay teammate Ronald Araujo was amongst those to respond as he answered with a muscle and fire emoji.

Nunez will undoubtedly be looking to continue his encouraging recent displays in Al-Hilal's upcoming fixture.

They face Al-Ahli on Friday night – a clash that will pit him against former Premier League talents Ryiad Mahrez, Ivan Toney and Edouard Mendy.

Nunez's switch to Saudi Arabia followed a three-year stint with Liverpool during which he found the net 40 times across 143 outings in all competitions.

The striker released a heartfelt message after his Anfield departure was made official.

"Thank you, Liverpool," the forward wrote on social media.
