Liverpool pay moving tribute to Divock Origi as cult hero departs Anfield

Divock Origi was presented with signed pictures and hailed by the Liverpool faithful as he stepped out at Anfield for the final time on Sunday evening.

The Belgian striker, 27, is leaving the Reds at the expiry of his contract in June and AC Milan are the frontrunners for his services. He gave Liverpool fans many a memorable moment since arriving on Merseyside in 2015, most famously scoring twice against Barcelona in the 2019 Champions League semi-finals.

Origi was unable to feature in the Reds' final home game of the season, their 3-1 victory over Wolves in the Premier League, due to injury but the club made sure to pay tribute to him after the match. He emerged from the tunnel to a guard of honour from his teammates while carrying the FA Cup Liverpool won earlier in May.
