Divock Origi has emerged as a standout player for Lille this season, showcasing his talent in the recent northern derby against Valenciennes by scoring his fifth goal of the campaign. The young striker, symbolizing the new era at LOSC, initially identified in Belgium in 2010, has secured his place in the starting lineup during the latter half of the season, contributing significantly with four goals in 10 starts in 2014.
Origi’s impressive performances haven’t gone unnoticed, drawing attention from several top European clubs, particularly in England. Liverpool, in particular, has expressed keen interest in the talented forward, with reports indicating that scouts from the Reds were present at Lille’s match against Valenciennes. It’s suggested that Liverpool could swiftly make an offer for Origi. However, they are not the only Premier League club eyeing the young Belgian, as Arsenal is also closely monitoring his progress.
Given Origi’s rising profile and consistent displays on the pitch, a transfer to a prominent club in England seems increasingly likely, with both Liverpool and Arsenal poised to make moves to secure his services in the upcoming transfer window.
