# Wolves still interested in Origi signing

Wolves are still eyeing up Divock Origi, ahead of a potential move to Molineux.

Writing for *[Wolves Bite](https://www.wolvesbite.com/2020/01/wolves-confident-forwards-will-come-but-are-cool-on-lemar-bowen-and-eggestein/)*, Tim Nash, freelance Wolves journalist, says the Belgian is still on the Premier League side’s radar.

Origi was [linked](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-stand-firm-divock-origi-15047571) with a move to Wolves back in the summer of 2018, but a switch never materalised.

A move is described as a ‘possibility’, as the striker weighs up his options.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

I wouldn’t like to see Origi leave Liverpool at any point in the near future, which wouldn’t have been the case back in 2018.

The 24-year-old has become a true cult hero at Anfield, following a string of huge goals, including the [Champions League-clinching](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VzNx27VAXw) strike against Tottenham last season.

There was a time when I didn’t feel Origi’s all-round game was good enough, but he has gone up a gear, proving to be a genuinely effective substitute.

He has scored [three goals and registered one assist](https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-stand-firm-divock-origi-15047571) in the league this season, including a brilliant double at home to Everton.

In my opinion, Origi will stay put and continue to be a squad player for Liverpool, although the lure of potentially starting regularly for Wolves could appeal.

Then again, I think it would be hard for him to oust Raul Jimenez as Nuno Espirito Santo’s first-choice striker.

The Mexican has scored [eight goals and added six assists](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/108186/Show/Ra%C3%BAl-Jim%C3%A9nez) in 2019/20, showing why he is so influential.
