Burnley ready to deal in AC Milan outcast Origi

Belgian hitman Divock Origi could be set for a return to England in the coming days.

Premier League side Burnley are assessing the forward as a possible late summer recruit.

Per Foot Mercato, the 28-year-old is available, as he is not training with AC Milan's main squad.

The source adds that Burnley boss Vincent Kompany is an admirer of Origi, as they know each other from the national team.

After two losses in their first two Premier League games, Kompany believes Burnley need extra firepower up front.

Origi would be happy to move, as he enjoyed his time in the Premier League with Liverpool.
