According to reports today, Liverpools summer signing (loaned back to Lille) Divock Origi could well be making his return to Liverpool 6 months earlier than expected, as the Reds look set to cut his loan short. The Belgian striker is a young player of huge potential and could become one of the star strikers across the continent but as it stands, its unclear what Liverpool hope to gain from recalling the player early, considering the availability of both Rickie Lambert and Mario Balotelli, with star striker Daniel Sturridge having returned to training too. Having impressed massively at the World Cup in 2014 and seemingly resigned Romelu Lukaku to bench duty for Belgium for the better part of the last 12 months, the striker hasnt had the greatest time back at Lille, scoring just 4 times this season in 25 games and has received a lot of criticism from his fans for a perceived lack of effort. Considering the amount the Reds have already paid for Origi, it seems ridiculous to think that the club would be prepared to hand more money over for a player the club already owns, particularly when there are other areas of the time that require being addressed, with a goalkeeper and top class defensive midfielder being needed much more than another striker, at the moment. Is there a place for Origi in the Liverpool team at present, or is it a fruitless decision on the part of the clubs management? Let us know your thoughts in the comments #Braydo
