Liverpool fans react as Wolves eye move for striker

Wolves are in the race alongside Napoli to secure the signing of Liverpool misfit Divock Origi, according to The Mirror.

The Reds are hoping to raise more funds before the transfer window slams shut. Harry Wilson and Marko Grujic have already departed Anfield this summer.

Origi is also deemed surplus requirements and Liverpool want to get shut of him. The 26-year-old scored just once and claimed two assists from 17 appearances last season.

Now, Jurgen Klopp wants to get rid and the striker is heading for the exit. He will, however, only leave if the £20 million valuation is met.

Bruno Lage is now in place at Wolves. He will hope to make a few signings before the transfer deadline and Origi is on his list.

Napoli would perhaps represent a more attractive option for the Belgian. They will be in European football next season and that could give them the edge.

Origi was left out of Roberto Martinez’s squad for Euro 2020 and that will spell the final straw for the 29-cap star.

He’ll be desperate to get back into contention for the squad and to do that he’ll need to be playing regular football.

Origi earns £60,000-a-week at Liverpool and letting him leave appears to make perfect sense.

Liverpool fans think Origi should be sold

With Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Xherdan Shaqiri all ahead of Origi in the pecking order, the time has come for him to make tracks.

The Belgian has scored some vital goals for Liverpool. During their Champions League victory during the 2018/19 campaign, he scored twice against Barcelona and also in the final against Tottenham.

Supporters think the ship has sailed when it comes to him getting a chance though and following today’s links, they’ve taken to Twitter.
