Uruguay boss Marcelo Bielsa has provided an injury update on Liverpool star Darwin Nunez and says the striker is struggling with \u2018muscular difficulties\u2019.<\/p>\n

Nunez started Uruguay\u2019s World Cup qualifying match against Ecuador on Tuesday but many were surprised when Bielsa decided to substitute the player at half-time.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old had starred in Uruguay\u2019s previous game, providing two assists in a 3-1 victory over Chile.<\/p>\n

\u2018Darwin arrived with some muscular difficulties and this limited his actions,\u2019 former Leeds United manager Bielsa said.<\/p>\n

\u2018I thought it necessary to replace him because he worked too much trying to press and attack in the last game.\u2019<\/p>\n

Nunez has been in fine form for Liverpool this season, producing a heroic performance at Newcastle last month in which he came off the bench and scored two goals in the last 10 minutes to secure the win when his side only had 10 men.<\/p>\n

He followed that up with an assist in Liverpool\u2019s last match, as Jurgen Klopp\u2019s side recorded a 3-0 victory over Aston Villa.<\/p>\n

The Reds return to action on Saturday when they travel to face Wolves \u2013 and it remains to be seen whether or not Nunez will be fully fit for that clash.<\/p>\n

Liverpool signed Nunez in a \u00a385m deal last summer and he has registered 17 goals and five assists across his opening 46 games for the Merseyside club.<\/p>\n

Klopp heavily praised Nunez after his recent performance against Newcastle and revealed that the striker was \u2018not happy\u2019 about starting the match on the bench, which left him \u2018fired up\u2019 when he came on.<\/p>\n
