West Ham monitoring the situation of Liverpool striker Divock Origi
West Ham United are monitoring the situation of Liverpool striker Divock Origi, with his club keen on selling him, according to 90min.
Jurgen Klopp’s side want to make room for new attacking additions and are ready to move the 26-year-old on.
The Belgium international is out of favour at Liverpool after seeing little action last term, and his representatives have been working hard on finding him a new club.
Great option
West Ham need to have a new striker in place when the new season starts, and Origi could be a great signing.
While he has struggled for playing opportunities of recent, a run of games can bring out the best in him again.
We need a player capable of delivering in Europe and on the domestic fronts, and the Belgian has done that for the Reds, helping them win the Champions League and Premier League of recent.
Origi’s work-rate cannot be disputed, and it is a quality manager David Moyes cherishes in his forwards.
He has just a year left on his current deal at Liverpool, and landing him should be possible and affordable for us.
West Ham are offering Europa League football, and playing in the competition would boost his chances of returning to the national team squad ahead of the next summer’s World Cup.
Origi would be keen to remain in the Premier League and play regularly after his recent struggles at Liverpool, and we could be handing him that chance.
In other West Ham news, talks underway as Hammers want to sign 27-year-old with six trophies.
