Everton to face competition from two Turkish giants for Origi

Everton target Divock Origi could be heading out the door at Anfield very soon.

The Belgian has found football hard to come by this season, and is yet to appear for Jürgen Klopp’s side.

After a loan spell at Wolfsburg last year speculation had been rife that the 23-year-old would be leaving Anfield on a permanent deal before the transfer window closed in the summer.

However, Origi opted to stay around on Merseyside for a little bit longer to see if he could resurrect his Reds career.

Unfortunately, it seems he can’t.

Reports suggest Turkish giants Galatasary and Besiktas are competing to land the versatile forward, capable of playing on either wing or through the middle.

Injury may yet bring Origi into Klopp’s plans for the 2018-19 season, but it seems the Ostend-native has no place in a fully fit Liverpool squad.

Cross-city rivals Everton are also said to be keen on signing Origi, with Marco Silva eager to add to his attacking ranks. Indeed, it was today revealed that Toffees striker Oumar Niasse had himself agreed a deal to join Galatasary, so Silva could yet land his man.
