# Virals: Divock Origi ‘wants to leave’ Liverpool on deadline day

[Liverpool](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/08/30/virals-liverpool-ready-to-get-serious-for-marcelo-brozovic-transfer/) striker [Divock Origi](https://readliverpoolfc.com/2021/08/30/virals-arsenal-consider-move-for-liverpool-striker-divock-origi/) is reportedly seeking a late move away from Anfield before the deadline passes.

The 26-year-old is believed to be seeking enhanced playing time having been [absent](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/leistungsdaten/spieler/148368) from the last two matchday squads.

Despite seemingly being out of favour on Merseyside, the club have persisted with their [high valuation](https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-west-ham-open-preliminary-talks-to-sign-origi-after-liverpool-asking-price-slashed/) of the Belgian, making a move all the more difficult.

However, according to journalist [Sacha Tavolieri](https://twitter.com/sachatavolieri)via a report from [LFC Transfer Room](https://www.si.com/soccer/liverpool/transfers/exclusive-divock-origi-wants-to-leave-liverpool), Origi has made a case to depart in the final hours of the summer window.

Tavolieri [added](https://twitter.com/sachatavolieri/status/1432513122095489024) that the forward was ‘not forcing’ a move and would remain ‘respectful’ should a deal fail to materialise.

Last season Origi only [scored once in 17 appearances](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/leistungsdaten/spieler/148368/plus/0?saison=2020) across all competitions for Jurgen Klopp’s side and has made another quiet start to the new campaign.

### READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Valued at £10.8million and in the final 12 months of a contract at Anfield ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/marktwertverlauf/spieler/148368)), a move would surely be the best possible outcome for all parties.

Whether the club can sufficiently lower their demands to further attract mooted Premier League and Bundesliga suitors to make a definitive offer for the [29-cap](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/divock-origi/nationalmannschaft/spieler/148368/verein_id/3382) man is another matter.

Should Origi move on in the final hours, it would be hoped Liverpool had an immediate replacement lined up – possibly making for an exciting conclusion to a previously [quiet](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-liverpool/transfers/verein/31) month.
