# Liverpool forward Origi linked with Everton switch

Liverpool striker Divock Origi has emerged as a target for Merseyside rivals Everton, according to surprising claims from Turkish news outlet [Aksam](https://www.aksam.com.tr/spor/galatasaray-cenk-tosunun-isini-bitiriyor/haber-783150).

The Belgian international’s future at Anfield appears to be in doubt following his failure to secure a summer move recently. Origi has been linked with several clubs and, in surprising new claims, Everton are the latest to be touted.

Aksam’s report indicates that if Everton are able to complete what seems to be an unlikely deal for Origi, they will consider offloading Cenk Tosun to Besiktas.

The Turkey international joined the Toffees only at the start of the year from Besiktas, however, it’s been widely reported in his homeland that a return could be on the cards.

Origi, meanwhile, finds himself far down the pecking order of strikers at Liverpool’s disposal, with a January departure looking all but certain.

Galatasaray have also been [linked](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2018/10/10/origi-set-to-complete-january-move-to-galatasaray/) with a move to recruit the powerful forward when the transfer window re-opens.
