Darwin Nunez's former coach says the Uruguayan striker is half Edinson Cavani and half Luis Suarez, but he is even better than BOTH his compatriots at this stage of his career, because he is already a stone-cold finisher

Two of Darwin Nunez's biggest fans are his compatriots, Luis Suarez and Edinson Cavani, with both the Uruguay legends talking up the younger man and tipping him for the top.

The formidable forwards have previously recommended the Liverpool-bound star to their respective clubs. Suarez told Barcelona they should make a move for the 22-year-old during his time at Camp Nou and Cavani reportedly advised Manchester United snare the young talent, last year.

They must see something of themselves in the striker, who has the 'power of Suarez and the intelligence of Cavani', as well as the hunger of both to succeed in European football.
