Liverpool fans are going wild over new £85million record signing Darwin Nunez's physique, as he posed for pictures on their pre-season tour.
The 23-year-old joined the Reds last month in a big-money move and is expected to lead the line this season after Sadio Mane left for Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich.
The Uruguay international struggled in games versus Manchester United and Crystal Palace during pre-season, but he then netted four against Red Bull Leipzig in a 5-0 victory on Thursday.
Away from the pitch, however, Nunez joined Roberto Firmino, Alisson Becker, Luis Diaz, Kostas Tsimikas and goalkeeping coach Claudio Taffarel for a fishing trip and posed for pictures looking absolutely ripped.
Reds fans took to social media to praise the Uruguay international's physique and one even suggesting he could be the next 'Aquaman' and one even insisting he might be more ripped than fellow star forward Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian was not posing for pictures for fans to compare, but he did recently post a number of pictures while on holiday back in Egypt this summer.
One fan said: 'Didn't think there could be a more ripped player than Salah but Darwin may just edge.
A second said: 'Darwin a monster physically.
A third tweeted: 'Nunez's abs is unreal.'
One insisted he could be a superhero by tweeting: 'Darwin looks like he can be the next Aquaman.
Another added: 'Darwin’s physique is absurd.
While one posted: 'The boys looking (muscular emoji).'
The Reds will face off against Premier League champions Manchester City at the King Power in the season's traditional curtain raiser on Saturday.
Jurgen Klopp's side have one more pre-season friendly before facing the Citizens, as Nunez's prepares for his biggest test since joining the Reds.
Liverpool's final pre-season game sees them take on RB Salzburg on Wednesday afternoon - just three days before the Community Shield Final.
The question now is whether Nunez will get the start in that match after impressing off the bench against Leipzig.
Replacing Roberto Firmino for the second half, Nunez quickly asserted himself against the Bundesliga club, scoring from the spot within minutes of entering the game.
The Uruguayan international built on the confidence earned from opening his Liverpool account by adding a second just minutes later, latching onto a Trent Alexander-Arnold pass before striking the ball past Leipzig goalkeeper Janis Blaswich.
Nunez then completed his hat-trick after 68 minutes, before linking up with fellow Liverpool new boy Fabio Carvalho in the final moments of the game to add a fourth goal to his tally.
Manager Klopp recently admitted the best way Nunez can dispel scrutiny about his price tag is by scoring goals.
'We always think that if you pay a lot of money then the players feel no pressure or whatever,' said Klopp.
'They are all completely normal human beings and (when) the first touch is not perfect then all of a sudden... this generation of players read social media, which is really not smart, but they do. All of a sudden you get in a rush and these kinds of things.
'That's (scoring) the best way obviously to stop all these discussions. He's a different striker to what we have or what we had, but he's a really good one.'
