2. Divock Origi back to Liverpool

Divock Origi

Divock origin grabbed eyeballs in this year’s FIFA World Cup with his sparkling and energetic performance in Belgian colours. Due to Romelu Lukaku’s injury Origi got playing time and performed impressively. Immediately after the tournament Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers roped in the exciting young forward for a five-year contract for £10 million. With likes of Daniel Sturridge and Mario Balotelli in the squad, it was unlikely that the youth would hardly get playing time. Thus, Rodgers immediately loaned him back to Lille for a year. Since summer, Rodgers’ team has struggled in the league and strikers have been a major concern for the Irish manager. While Daniel Sturridge remained out of action due to injury for most of the times, Balotelli was pathetic to be honest. In this crisis period and pressure situation it is quite likely that Rodgers may call back Divock Origi half way through the loan period. Even though they need to pay £4.7 million pound to the French club, Brendan Rodgers will not mind as long as his presence adds finesse to the club’s attack force. Only concern Divock Origi’s injury problems and fitness issues. As per reports, Origi will undergo an MRI scan. Its report will decide the Belgian’s fate.
