Liverpool scouts urged Klopp to choose this striker over Nunez

Liverpool's scouting gurus' choice of forward was not the man they currently have up front.

Manager Jurgen Klopp is the one who preferred to bring in Nunez two summers ago.

The former Benfica forward has failed to live up to his mega price tag from that 2022 move.

According to The Times, Nunez was a Klopp buy and one he may come to regret.

The forward has missed key chances in recent games as the team dropped points in the title race.

Reds' recruitment team had favored a move for then RB Leipzig star Christopher Nkunku.
