Divock Origi: Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers wants me to be among the world's best

Last Updated: 05/08/14

Liverpool summer signing Divock Origi says manager Brendan Rodgers hopes to see him develop into one of the world's best players.

The 19-year-old, who shot to prominence at the World Cup with Belgium, made a £10million switch to Anfield earlier this summer but was immediately loaned back to Ligue 1 as part of the deal.

Liverpool were reported to have beaten the likes of Tottenham, Arsenal and Atletico Madrid to Origi’s signature, and were hopeful of him linking up with the squad immediately.

Instead, Lille were keen to get another season out of the young striker and he will concentrate his efforts with them for the new campaign after a whirlwind couple of months.

Although he is staying focused on the season ahead with Lille, Origi admitted to being thrilled by his brief experiences at Liverpool and revealed that Rodgers has high hopes for his career.

"He (Rodgers) wants me to become one of the best players in the world," Origi told L'Equipe.

"What I have experienced so far is amazing. Liverpool wanted me immediately but I still have to work.

"I have been welcomed in the Belgium team. I became friends with Adnan Januzaj.

"The World Cup was amazing for me with that goal scored at the Maracana (against Russia).

"And then Liverpool, when I joined Liverpool I was impressed.

"Steven Gerrard told me it was a shame I could not be here immediately and they were expecting me with patience. I also met Daniel Sturridge – that was nice."

Origi also admitted his surprise at Liverpool's extensive knowledge of his career to date.

"Liverpool followed me for a long time," he said.

"When I was in the offices, they showed me my caps when I was under 15. Everyone knows me, I could not believe it."

The Belgium international scored six times in 35 appearances for Lille last season, helping them secure a place in the qualifying rounds of the Champions League with a third-place finish.

He said: "Anyway, I am at Lille and only that matters for now. Last season I scored in my very first match in Le Championnat before leaving the first team a bit later, which pushed me to work harder.

"I want to play a lot of matches, adapt more to the team and discover the European Cup."

Radamel Falcao set for Real Madrid, despite Liverpool hopes

Tony Barrett

Liverpool have made an inquiry into the availability of Radamel Falcao but their tentative interest has gone no further after being informed that the Monaco forward is destined for Real Madrid.

Falcao is set to leave Monaco on loan this summer and Liverpool looked into the possibility of taking him to Anfield as a short term replacement for Luis Suarez only to discover that, as expected, the 28-year-old has his heart set on signing for Real.

That, coupled with the financial implications of the £12 million loan fee Monaco are seeking and the Colombian’s salary of £10 million per year after tax, has brought Liverpool’s interest to an end at the earliest possible stage.

Yea I figured the Falcao rumors were false and a bunch of BS Monaco are asking for a ridiculous loan fee and he's on prolly a combined of what Suarez and reina were making

Don't buy the cavani links either, seems his agent is simply name dropping to get arsenal to further push the deal

I don't think that Arsenal are in the running for Cavani, either ... They might have been involved before the Sanchez deal, but after that deal, the chances of them pursuing Cavani are slim to none ...

Your club is making mine look foolish right now. We look bad in a damm friendly? This season may be rough, haha.

Sturridge looks like a man possesed. Sterling is so fast and annoying (his arms fail around so strangely when he dribbles, never noticed last year). Cout is looking solid too, and worst of all, Klopp is getting owned by Rodgers. Plus your grimy fans keep hating on Schmelzer with their mouths full of food

dont they know they need to respect his legend...smh

All joking aside, gl in the second half and in your trophy endeavors this year. Also, I must repeat myself: your first kits are excellent this year.

Dortmund are a classy club. Hope we see each other in the CL when it matters. Best away in Europe by a mile.

Well, it is a pre-season friendly, and your team was missing some important players, but it is always nice to beat a strong club like Borussia Dortmund ... Anyway, all the best in the new season, and hopefully all your injured players are back soon ...
