Liverpool fans are still reeling from a summer of major exits — and the latest emotional exchange between two former teammates has only added to the drama.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, who sealed a surprise £10m switch to Real Madrid earlier this window, has now reacted to Darwin Núñez’s heartfelt farewell after the Uruguayan striker completed a £46.2m move to Saudi Arabian giants Al-Hilal.
The duo shared three seasons together at Anfield, celebrating goals, lifting trophies, and forging a strong bond. Núñez, who netted 40 goals in 143 games for the Reds, took to Instagram with a message overflowing with gratitude:
> “Three unforgettable years. Liverpool will forever be a part of me. Thank you for the memories, the love, and the support — through every high and low. I’ll miss you more than words can say. YNWA.”
Trent was among the hundreds of thousands to ‘like’ the post, alongside ex-colleagues Virgil van Dijk, Alisson Becker, Alexis Mac Allister, and Dominik Szoboszlai.
Meanwhile, Liverpool’s summer shake-up continues. Núñez’s exit follows Luis Díaz’s £65.5m move to Bayern Munich and is set to fuel the Reds’ record-breaking pursuit of Newcastle’s Alexander Isak.
Jeremie Frimpong, brought in to bolster the squad, wasted no time making his mark — scoring on his debut in the Community Shield — though Liverpool fell to Crystal Palace in a penalty shootout.
With the September 1 deadline looming, fans are left wondering: Will Arne Slot pull off one more attacking coup before the window slams shut?
