The Uruguayan star hasn’t been able to live up to expectations at Anfield since his summer move from Benfica.
Darwin Nunez has opened up on his slow adaptation process at Liverpool.
Nunez received a red card for his altercation with Crystal Palace’s Joachim Andersen in Liverpool’s second Premier League game of the season.
The subsequent ban saw Nunez miss his side’s next three league games. The 23-year-old came off the bench for Jurgen Klopp’s side in their 2-1 win over Ajax on Tuesday, aiming to regain his best form “little by little”.
“The truth is that it was a little difficult to adapt, but I believe that, as training and games go by, I will adapt little by little,” he told TNT Sports Brasil.
“[After the red card] was a very tough time. I was suspended for three games, I know I made a big mistake, and now I’m aware that it won’t happen again.
“I have to calm my nerves during the games and talk less. We all make mistakes and I know it will serve as a learning experience.
“The important thing is to leave my mark on the team, someone who can always contribute by playing well and, if I don’t score, I have to be calm.”
