Liverpool star Darwin Nunez has team-mates in stitches during a Christmas-themed Carpool Karaoke.

Nunez, 24, was joined by Curtis Jones, Cody Gakpo and even Santa Claus as they drove around Liverpool spreading lots of Christmas cheer to the city.

In a video uploaded to the club’s official YouTube channel, the trio handed out presents, met the public and signed several autographs. 

Throughout the journey, there were quizzes, Christmas crackers, and even some karaoke, which included a rendition of Holidays are Coming – commonly used in the Coca-Cola Christmas advert.

However, while Gakpo, Jones and Santa Claus were singing the popular tune, Nunez was quick to chime in with: ‘You’ll never walk alone.’

The Liverpool forward had his team-mates in stitches when he was handed a pair of fake ‘Turkey teeth’ to put in – which he obliged. 

‘Here’s a gift for Darwin so he feels like a Scouser. Cos you’re not a proper Scouser unless you’ve got some Turkey teeth,’ the host, dressed as Santa Claus, said. 

Nunez then showed off his new set of teeth with a huge smile, before saying: ‘How are we?’ in a Scouse accent.

His Scouse accent, which still needs a little bit of work on, sent both Jones and Gakpo into hysterics. 

Nunez was also quick to reveal his favourite Christmas film to Liverpool fans. Many may be surprised that his choice is the Grinch!

The Liverpool stars left fans shocked after visiting several houses across the city and delivering gifts and spreading Christmas joy. 

They even had time towards the end of the Christmas Carpool to head to the nearest McDonald’s restaurant in an attempt to earn some free food.

Nunez is currently struggling to score after a flying start to the season up front and will be hoping for a bit of luck over the festive period.

Nunez has struggled for form recently – but Jurgen Klopp’s right-hand man Lijnders has defended him

He has scored seven goals for the Reds this term but has failed to find the net since a Carabao Cup game at Bournemouth on November 1, 10 matches ago.

Jurgen Klopp’s right-hand man Pep Lijnders, though, has defended the out-of-form forward.

‘Darwin is full of desire, you see that in each game,’ said the Dutch coach, ahead of Liverpool’s Carabao Cup quarter-final with West Ham. ‘And if we would only judge players on the goals, that would be so unfair.

‘I feel that there is a good connection between Mo (Salah) and Darwin, for example – the way they see each other, they assist each other. And I feel above everything, Darwin is playing a much better season than last year.

‘The way he defends for the team, the way he controls the centre and at the same time puts the press on, the way he goes, the way he chases back, his counter-press as well. He helps us a lot when we are deep and we can play with him as a reference, so he does that much better.

‘He’s learning. This guy is full of fire – and that’s what our stadium likes. That’s what we need as well – to lead the line in this way. He can only become better, it’s a good thing. We have a really good relationship – all of us, I’m not speaking only of me, and he feels our trust.’
