Liverpool striker Divock Origi is determined to nail down a first team place this season.

Origi says he is confident the former Borussia Dortmund boss is well aware of his capabilities as he vies for a place in his first choice XI.

"This year it's about establishing myself. I think people see potential in me and I am also confident in myself," he told Liverpool's official website.

"Of course you want to play, but to play you have to deserve it. It comes with the work off the pitch in training, but also in the minutes you get because you have to maximise them.

"I never hide my ambition – I want to become a big player for Liverpool one day and I know it can come soon if I work hard. I am young, but I am confident about my qualities and know I can bring something to the team."
