The Liverpool legend (dixit Klopp) might finally find playing time elsewhere. This is what several English media said on Friday. Sky Sports announces in particular that three Italian teams are very interested in its profile. The hottest team would be Roma Lazio.
But would that be a good choice? In Rome, he would have to face Ciro Immobile. Average with the Squadra, the Italian transforms with his club. With the armband screwed tight to his arm, he has scored 14 goals in 16 Serie A games this year. And he has planted 167 roses in 241 matches in all competitions since his arrival in 2016. In short, not the easiest customer. Because Sarri only evolves with a point and two wingers. If Origi can possibly help out on the sides, his best position remains that of number 9.
Another possible exit: Newcastle. But here too, the adventure promises to be perilous. The Magpies are last in the Premier League. Above all, they enjoy a fairly significant hate capital in England since the takeover of the club by the Saudis. Not the most encouraging context to relaunch a career that has been idling for too long.
Especially since Divock Origi has no more time to waste. Arrived in 2014 in Liverpool, he shone more by his goals in crucial moments than by a starting place. Above all, he now starts from (very) far in the hierarchy among the Red Devils. Called in November by Martinez, he had started once morest Wales, but he was not convinced.
At the end of his contract this summer, the player is adored by Klopp. According to several media outlets, Liverpool also have a clause to extend No.27 for a year. But the German has been aware of blocking his career for several years. Especially since he was not once morest selling his player last summer: “To be 100% honest I thought he might be leaving this summer. But the football world is crazy. And obviously people have forgotten how good he is.”, said the former Dortmund following the start of Origi once morest AC Milan in C1.
Despite the departures of Salah and Mané at CAN, the management of the Reds should not be too greedy for their striker. According to the Telegraph, the 26-year-old Belgian would have an exit voucher for 9 million euros this winter. That’s three less than when he arrived following a successful 2014 World Cup. Another era. This price should certainly not cool new investors in Newcastle. They who started their new team operation with the arrival of Kieran Trippier.
