New No.9 Darwin Nunez to personally reimburse fans who bought wrong Liverpool shirt

Darwin Nunez has revealed his new shirt number at Liverpool, and will personally reimburse fans with his old No.27.

The Uruguayan striker has taken the vacant No.9 from Roberto Firmino, a number he last wore at Benfica.

Liverpool fans had already been buying their newly-released 2023/24 shirt with Nunez and the number 27 on the back, but will now be offered an exchange.

The club said: "Fans who have already purchased new 2023-24 home and away jerseys printed with the name 'Darwin' and the number '27' will be personally reimbursed by Nunez with a like-for-like exchange for a 'Darwin 9' shirt."

Nunez himself also commented on taking a number worn by legendary strikers such as Robbie Fowler, Ian Rush and Fernando Torres.

"I'm really happy to wear number nine. And I'm very proud too," he told liverpoolfc.com.

"Honestly, previously other players represented this number really well and now it's my turn to wear it.

"I hope that everything goes well. I hope I'm able to represent it the best way just as the previous players did.

"And hopefully this is for many years and that it brings a lot of joy too."

Die-hard fans of the 24-year-old will be delighted to hear the news, considering the staggering cost of their new Nike kits.

Liverpool have so far released their home and away versions, available for an eye-watering £114.95 for a match jersey, and £74.95 for a stadium jersey.

Including printing, the match jersey's price increases to £145.95, meaning Nunez might be having second thoughts about the reimbursement cost…
