Liverpool open to offers for out-of-favour striker Divock Origi as champions look to raise funds for new recruits for title challenge next season

  • Liverpool are inviting offers for Divock Origi ahead of summer transfer window 
  • Manager Jurgen Klopp is eager to raise funds for potential new recruits 
  • Origi’s last start came on January 31, with the striker having fallen out of favour 

Liverpool are inviting offers for Champions League hero Divock Origi who is the club’s second longest-serving player after Jordan Henderson.

Jurgen Klopp, looking to raise funds for new signings after a disappointing season, will allow 25-year-old Origi to leave this summer with Belgian having largely fallen out of the first-team picture.

His last start came against Everton on January 31 though he did provide an assist as substitute against Leipzig on Wednesday night.

Origi signed for Liverpool in 2014 after starring for Belgium at the World Cup in Brazil. He initially spent a year on loan with Lille before arriving at Anfield where he played in Klopp’s first game in charge at Tottenham.

Liverpool’s regular front three of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino subsequently restricted his opportunities but he played a key role in their stunning Champions League success in 2019, scoring twice in the famous 4-0 comeback win over Barcelona and then netting in the final against Spurs.

He signed a new contract on the strength of those performances but with Klopp now looking to bolster his squad, other clubs in Europe are aware of his availability.

Origi has three years left on his contract and age-wise is entering the peak years of his career so Liverpool will be looking for a transfer fee they can then reinvest.
