Liverpool could be willing to sell Divock Origi before the transfer deadline day. Tottenham Hotspur may be attracted by Origi’s potential availability.
The 22-year-old has dropped down the pecking order behind Roberto Firmino and Daniel Sturridge, and is yet to start a game this season. He has made only one substitute appearance, in the 3-3 draw with Watford.
To make the matter worse, Origi wasn’t even on the bench in Liverpool’s crucial Champions League qualifier win over Hoffenheim this week, with Jurgen Klopp preferring young Dominic Solanke ahead of him.
The report claims that Origi is keen to play regular football, and understands that if he spends the season on the bench, he would might miss out on a place in Belgium’s star studded World Cup squad.
Liverpool are prepared to let him leave before the transfer window closes.
Origi has 22-caps for the Belgium national team already, and there won’t be shortage of admirers. One of them could be Liverpool’s direct Premier League rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, who have shown an interest in him in the past.
Spurs are looking to sell Vincent Janssen and sign a forward to cover and play with Harry Kane. Tottenham fans took to Twitter to express their opinion on the transfer link:
