Released from Chile squad
Nunez has been released from Chile's squad due to personal reasons, according to the Chilean National Team.
Analysis: Nunez has seen a reduced role at Ipswich recently, remaining on the bench in each of the club's last three Premier League matches after losing his starting spot following Exequiel Palacios's signing. With Palacios and Sasa Lukic now handling the middle of the park, this early return from international duty gives him extra time to work with his club as he looks to force his way back into contention.
Losing starting role
Nunez has stayed on the bench in each of Ipswich's last three EPL matches.
Analysis: The central midfielder started the first two EPL matches of the season and bagged a brace in the EFL Cup opener against Leicester City, but he's lost his starting role since the signing of Exequiel Palacios. With Palacios and Sasa Lukic handling the middle of the park, Nunez seems destined for a backup role for the foreseeable future.
