‘They Have To Get Rid Of Him’ Liverpool Urged To Sell CL Hero

Divock Origi has been a fringe player at Anfield this season after returning from a loan spell at Wolfsburg last season.

But the Belgian has scored some goals that will live long in the memory of Liverpool supporters.

Origi scored the late winner in the 4-3 aggregate win over Barcelona in the Champions League semi-final last month.

He also netted the vital second in the 2-0 final win over Tottenham in Madrid on Saturday.

Earlier in the campaign, Origi scored the only goal in the 1-0 win over Everton to win the Merseyside derby at Anfield.

But despite all that, Nicol says it is time 24-year-old parted ways with Liverpool.

“For Liverpool’s sake, they should get rid of him, let him go, depends on how harsh or nicely you want to put it,” f Liverpool legend Steve Nicol said.

“He has to go for his sake but for Liverpool’s sake, they’ve got themselves into a place now where they need to think ‘how do we take the next step?’.

“And for me taking the next step is making the squad better and bigger.

“I don’t feel that Divock Origi makes our squad better.

“Whenever he has played, whenever he has come on, generally for Firmino to give him a break, the level has dropped too far in my opinion.

“That’s why ultimately they have to get rid of him.

“Now, he’s going to be remembered forever and a day, not only for the Champions League goal in the final but obviously for the one against Barcelona and against Everton.

“So he will be remembered but unfortunately, as a player, he’s just not good enough to be playing at the level Liverpool need to be every time they step on the field.”

What do you think, should he leave the club?
