Not for the first time this season, it appeared something of a missed opportunity for Darwin Nunez.
Darwin Nunez has been slammed by Liverpool supporters after he failed to applaud Jurgen Klopp during his guard of honour at Anfield on Sunday.
Klopp said farewell to Liverpool fans on the final day of the Premier League season, calling time on his nine-year stint in the Premier League.
The 56-year-old, who guided Liverpool to seven major trophies during his time at Anfield, was given a guard of honour by players and staff following the 2-0 win at home to Wolves.
Video footage from a Liverpool supporter shows every player clapping Klopp as he walked by, however, Nunez stood with his arms down and with one hand over the other.
Liverpool supporters also noticed Nunez’s demeanour during Klopp’s speech to the squad inside the dressing room after the game as the Uruguay international sat there at one point with his head in his hand and, once again, did not applaud the German.
After watching the footage, one Liverpool supporter wrote on X: ‘Get him gone. Haven’t seen a player given so much love by the fans and manager and yet be so ungrateful.’
Another Liverpool fan wrote: ‘To those saying it’s not a big deal, it really is. I love Nunez as a player – he is electric. But this isn’t a player issue. This is a character issue. Just clap. It’s simple.
‘If he can’t figure that out or, even worse, didn’t clap intentionally, then we need to look at if he is a fit for Liverpool over the summer.’
However, recently new photos have appeared proving that Klopp and Nunez’s relationship is still good when the Uruguayan striker still applauds Klopp.
Camera made that look a lot worse
It has seemingly dispelled any rumours of discontent after the Uruguayan was thought not to have clapped the German boss on his guard of honour.
