Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Jurgen Klopp has been talking about Divock Origi after his headline-grabbing goal against Wolves at the weekend.
The Belgian was at it again on Saturday. He continued his incredible knack of scoring dramatic late goals off the bench, and it seems as though his performance at Molineux has earned him a start in the Champions League.
Indeed, Klopp has said that it is pretty likely that Origi will get his chance against AC Milan.
What’s Klopp said about Origi?
Klopp was asked about the striker in his press conference.
“Let’s talk about Divock Origi? Will he get his chance against Milan?” One journalist asked.
“It’s pretty likely, yeah,” Klopp responded in jovial fashion, indicating that Origi will get his chance in this match.
Deserved
Origi has only started three games so far this season, and after his exploits this weekend, he certainly deserves the chance to start his fourth match of the season.
The striker once again proved that he has the quality to be a real asset to this side, and no matter how good Liverpool’s star players are, Origi always finds a way to steal the show.
The Reds will need to rotate against Milan in any case, but Origi has certainly earned the opportunity to showcase his talents in the Champions League once again.
