Darwin Nunez has made his first post on social media since deleting all Liverpool-related images from his Instagram account.
Nunez stunned fans by deleting all pictures relating to his time at Anfield, following Sunday's 4-2 win over Tottenham.
The Uruguay international struggled to make an impact after coming on as a second-half substitute against Spurs.

And after receiving criticism from fans on social media, he removed all Liverpool images from his account – although a reference to the club still remains in his bio.
His decision to remove the images has fuelled speculation over his future, amid reports Barcelona are considering a bid for the 24-year-old this summer.
The Sun claim Barcelona view Nunez as a potential long-term replacement for Robert Lewandowski, despite his inconsistent form for Liverpool.

Nunez has now broken his silence following his mysterious social media activity.
Replying to former Liverpool and Barcelona striker Luis Suarez, who marked his 500th career goal on Monday evening, Nunez replied: "Idolo (idol)", followed by the heart-eyes and tensed bicep emojis.
Suarez reached the milestone after scoring a hat-trick for Inter Miami in a 6-2 win over New York Red Bulls.
He shared a message to his fans on Instagram, writing: "500 goals in clubs, incredible. Thank you Nacional, Groningen, Ajax, Liverpool, Barcelona, Atletico [Madrid], Gremio, Inter Miami. And thanks to all of you for the support."

Nunez plays alongside Suarez for the Uruguay national side and it remains to be seen whether he will make the same career move as 'El Pistolero', leaving Liverpool for Barcelona.
Nunez has scored 33 goals in 94 games for the Reds since joining from Benfica in a deal worth up to £85m in 2022.
Despite the speculation linking him with a move away from Liverpool, Nunez is keen to speak to incoming manager Arne Slot before deciding his future, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

"A lot of fans are asking about Darwin Nunez deleting all Liverpool-related posts from his Instagram," Romano wrote in his daily briefing.
"It's all quiet so far, nothing is happening and for sure Darwin is looking forward to speaking to new coach Arne Slot."
