Galatasaray Face English Competition For Divock Origi

Champions League campaigners Galatasaray will have to contend with competition from the Premier League in the chase for Liverpool striker Divock Origi.

The Turkish giants want to add the Belgian international star to their forward options when the upcoming transfer window reopens in the New Year.

According to various media reports, newly promoted side Wolverhampton Wanderers are also interested in the 23-year-old.

The Midlands club came close to signing him in the summer but the move didn’t materialise.

Origi was almost a Wolves player during the summer’s transfer window in a £20m deal but he stayed at Liverpool at end of the transfer market.

The same amount would be enough to prise him away from Anfield when the January transfer window comes around in the next few weeks.

The decision to stay at Anfield has not been a productive one as he has only made one appearance for Liverpool in all competitions.

His sole outing this season came in the surprising 2-0 loss to Serbian side Red Star Belgrade in a Matchday 4 clash in the Champions League.

Divock Origi signed for Liverpool in 2014 from French Ligue 1 side Lille and he has been sent out on loan twice (Lille and VFL Wolfsburg).
