Darwin Nunez is continuing to improve his fitness levels in preseason, so Jurgen Klopp anticipates seeing him pick up his efforts for Liverpool FC in the upcoming weeks.
The Uruguayan international made his Reds debut on Tuesday during Liverpool FC's humiliating 4-0 loss to Manchester United when he entered the game as a second-half substitute.
Nunez, who was involved in numerous of Liverpool FC's offensive plays in the second half, missed a wonderful opportunity to score for the Reds late in the game.
Following his high-profile transfer from Benfica at the beginning of the summer transfer window, the 23-year-old will now focus on improving his fitness levels in the coming weeks as he attempts to get himself ready for his debut season in English football.
Despite Nunez's obvious lack of match sharpness, Klopp stated that he was delighted with what he saw from the new arrival when asked about his performance following Tuesday's loss to Manchester United.
Nunez is a number nine who can also play on the wing, according to Klopp when asked about him following the game. We'll watch to see where he plays. But you could see that the boys were looking for him already.
"I believe that after the third sprint, his lungs were about ready to blow, and it was his third session (since arriving for preseason training).
We came close to killing him with these balls, but he provided the runs and the boys wanted to pass the ball, which is unquestionably one of his talents. He was risky in all these different ways.
Darwin, let's wait and see. I believe his profile is a proper nine, which helps with his quickness, ferocity, and use of his body, among other things.

When asked about making his Merseyside team debut after the loss, the 19-year-old winger said: "From the first day in training and up until now, this is what I've been working for - to try to get into the team.
I was on the field today with my new teammates, and they welcomed me very warmly.
I was on the field today with my new teammates, and they welcomed me very warmly. I'm just grateful to be here, and hopefully we can settle things before the next game.
"We start with a winning mentality in practice and carry it over to the games. We do our hardest to win every game because we want to win at all costs.
It was my first game for Liverpool, and hopefully the start of many, so today was a little bittersweet for me.
Nobody loves to lose, especially to United and in the manner we did, but I'm confident that the next time we face them, we'll be fighting to make up for it on the field.
