"Wouldn't surprise me" - Transfer insider drops big Liverpool claim on 32-cap "legend"

Liverpool striker Divock Origi could make a late decision to sign a new contract as he has shown that he is ‘happy’ in his current Anfield role, according to transfer insider Dean Jones.

There are question marks as to whether Origi will still be at Reds boss Jurgen Klopp’s disposal by the time next season gets underway.

As things stand, Origi has entered the final weeks of his Liverpool career as his £82,000-per-week contract is due to expire in the summer.

Uncertainty over the 32-cap Belgium international’s long-term future has caught the eye of numerous clubs, with a queue forming for his signature.

West Ham United and Newcastle United are hopeful of keeping Origi in the Premier League, but it appears they are not the frontrunners.

That is because, according to Italian media outlet Calciomercato, the frontman is on the brink of securing a move to AC Milan.

The 27-year-old, who has been able to sign a pre-contract agreement with overseas suitors since entering the final six months of his Anfield deal at the turn of the year, is understood to be on the verge of putting pen-to-paper at the San Siro.

Jones believes Origi could make a last-minute U-turn and, instead of heading to Serie A, commit his long-term future to Liverpool.

The transfer insider also feels heading to Premier League rivals West Ham is not an attractive proposition for the Belgian.

Jones told GIVEMESPORT: “To be honest, I don’t really see that that’s a great move for Divock Origi at the moment.

“He’s been happy, up to this point, with playing this role at Liverpool and it wouldn’t surprise me if that continued to be the case.”
