Harry Potter nemesis Lord Voldemort hiding in Liverpool star Darwin Nunez’s neck

Harry Potter villain Lord Voldemort has been spotted on the neck of Liverpool striker Darwin Nunez.

Football fans have been left in hysterics after the famous character – he who must not be named – was spotted on the Adam’s Apple of the striker during the Red’s 3-0 Premier League win over Bournemouth on Saturday.

Despite having many tattoos, the 25-year-old Uruguayan marksman hasn’t inked Voldemort onto his body. Instead the outline on his neck appeared to look like the face of the alien-like fictional wizard from the JK Rowling books, who also appeared in all but one of the Harry Potter films, when he was portrayed by Brit acting great Ralph Fiennes.

Posting a photo of the South American forward on social media, fan Tye White said: “That’s Voldemort using Darwin like he did to Professor Quirrell to make his return.”

If you’re not a fan of the franchise this references the very first film where Voldemort re-appears on the back of a characters head. Another fan said: “It’s an alien about to burst through.”

Nunez has suffered a lot of criticism during his two-year spell at Anfield for not living up to the heights expected of him given his £85m transfer fee. However, he’s now off the mark for this season with a goal in the victory at Anfield.

New boss Arne Slot seems to be trusting him to lead the line for the Reds, but whether he will be consistent enough to fire them to major silverware is the question on many fans lips.

The Liverpool forward isn’t the only famous star to seemingly feature a hidden character on their body. Three weeks ago, fans spotted Jesus in Made in Chelsea reality star Spencer Matthews’ abs, as reported by What’s The Jam.

Spencer was posing after completing a gruelling charity challenge where he completed 30 marathons in 30 days.
