# Liverpool: Divock Origi a ‘concrete target’ for AC Milan

**Liverpool striker Divock Origi is reportedly a ‘concrete target’ for Serie A giants AC Milan ahead of a likely move away from Anfield this summer.**

### The Lowdown: Origi likely to leave Anfield

The 26-year-old has become a cult hero during his time as a Reds player, scoring some [genuinely iconic goals](https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/48179167) in the Jurgen Klopp era.

Origi has become an increasingly bit-part figure this season, though, making [no starts in the Premier League](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/124688/Show/Divock-Origi), and Luis Diaz’s January arrival has only made him even more peripheral.

It seems likely that the Belgian will enjoy a fresh challenge at the end of the season, with a new update suggesting as much.

### The Latest: Milan interested in move for Origi

According to [Milan News](https://www.milannews.it/primo-piano/focus-mn-divock-origi-velocita-e-potenza-per-l-attacco-rossonero-445212) \[via [Sport Witness](https://sportwitness.co.uk/liverpool-player-concrete-goal-club-recent-meeting-serious-signing/)\], Origi is a ‘concrete target’ for Milan as they eye up a younger alternative to 40-year-old Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

They have ‘identified’ the Liverpool striker and have also ‘already started’ making contact with his representatives over a summer transfer, with the report calling him a ‘serious’ target.

### The Verdict: Makes perfect sense

Origi will forever be remembered fondly by Liverpool supporters, having scored memorable Champions League goals against Barcelona and [Tottenham](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48368443), not to mention some [crucial last-gasp winners](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11661/12484638/wolves-0-1-liverpool-divock-origis-stoppage-time-winner-ended-wolves-resistance-to-take-liverpool-top) in the Premier League. Indeed, Klopp himself has [called](https://tbrfootball.com/a-monster-jurgen-klopp-praises-divock-origi-for-his-aerial-ability/) the Belgium international a ‘monster’.

However, it makes complete sense for the 26-year-old to leave this summer and enjoy regular football elsewhere at a prime period in his career, in terms of age.

There is simply no way for him to get constant minutes at Liverpool these days, but perhaps he has one last major contribution in his locker over the coming months.
