Lille striker Origi excited by Liverpool future

Lille striker Divock Origi is looking forward to moving to Liverpool next year.

Origi is currently on-loan at Lille.

The 19-year-old told liverpoolfc.com: "Always with big teams there is competition, but it's also nice to have big players there so you can learn from them and grow and so you can play when the time is right.

"I will go there with a lot of patience and I know I'm going to learn a lot of things with the great players that are there."

He added: "I think they welcomed me very well. This showed me a little bit about the history of the club and their philosophy so it was very interesting.

"At the end, I think it was the right choice."
