Among the most pressing questions for the next Liverpool manager is what to do with Darwin Núñez.

It seemed when he scored a brace against Newcastle to turn the game around that he had truly arrived at Liverpool, but he never really capitalized on that — and his fluffed lines will be remembered more than most when dissecting where the title slipped away.

Does the new manager — with Arne Slot now looking very likely to be that man — keep the faith with Núñez?

Or will Liverpool look to the market to try and find someone with a more clinical touch?

In theory, one candidate would be Alexander Isak.

The percentage for Núñez, by the way, stands at 13.

But former Liverpool and Newcastle player José Enrique has already sounded something of a warning.

"He’s too injury prone, to the extent that if someone came with a lot of money this summer which gave Newcastle the opportunity to sign someone slightly worse but consistently fit, they’d have to consider that option."

Liverpool.com says: First and foremost, there's no suggestion that Liverpool is in any way minded to give up on Núñez and move for Isak.

The potential is infuriatingly obvious.

But if Liverpool was in the market for a replacement, then Enrique makes a good point about Isak.
