Steven Gerrard’s Rangers and Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic are among the clubs interested in signing Divock Origi from Liverpool, according to 90min.

What’s the story?

Liverpool want to sell Origi in the summer transfer window.

Old Firm rivals Rangers and Celtic are interested in the striker.

The Belgium international’s agents have been working hard to find him a new club.

The Gers and the Hoops are monitoring the situation of the 26-year-old.

Divock Origi to Celtic or Rangers?

Divock Origi is a Premier League and Champions League winner with Liverpool.

In fact, the 26-year-old striker played a big role in Liverpool winning the Champions League in 2019.

In May 2019, Liverpool came from 3-0 down from the first leg to win the second leg 4-0 at Anfield in the semi-finals.

Lionel Messi was playing for Barcelona that night, and the Argentina international forward suffered a heartbreak thanks to Origi’s heroics.

The Belgian scored twice in the second leg, first in the seventh minute and then in the 79th minute.

Origi has been a peripheral figure at Liverpool over the years, but if given an extended run in the team, he would be good for Celtic or Rangers.
