Liverpool transfer news: Divock Origi reportedly a loan target for Turkish giants Galatasaray

Galatasaray are interested in signing Liverpool forward Divock Origi on loan, according to reports.

The Belgium international has featured just five times for Jurgen Klopp’s side this season.

He is behind Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Daniel Sturridge in the Anfield pecking order.

Turkish outlet Fanatik report Origi is wanted by Galatasaray after the club failed to sign Sparta Prague striker Benjamin Tetteh.

The Turkish giants are aiming to win their 22nd Super Lig title this season, but they trail leaders Istanbul Basaksehir by six points after winning just once in five league games.

Origi had an unsuccessful loan spell at Wolfsburg, who narrowly avoided relegation, last term.

Now, the 23-year-old’s playing time will only improve if he seeks another temporary move away, as he is unlikely to break into Klopp’s starting line-up.

The former Lille attacker, who scored a 96th-minute winner against arch rivals Everton last month, is not in the German’s long-term plans.
