Luis Suarez praises Liverpool signing Darwin Nunez: He'll let his talent do the talking...

Luis Suarez has refused to be drawn on comparisons between himself and new Liverpool signing Darwin Nunez.

The Reds recently paid an initial £64m to sign Uruguay international Nunez from Benfica.

And Suarez, who scored 82 goals in 133 games during his spell at Liverpool, believes Nunez has enough talent to write his own story at Anfield.

"He will write his own story at Liverpool," Suarez told The Mirror.

"He is Uruguayan and he is a forward but that is where the comparisons stop - he is a special player and doesn't need to be compared with anybody.

"He is going to a great club with one of the best coaches in the world, players he can learn off, and of course those special fans."

Asked if he will give advice to the 22-year-old, Suarez added: "I can be there to offer him advice about England and about the style of play - but I don't think he will need it - he will let his talent do the talking."
