Divock Origi withdrawn from Liverpool friendly due to hamstring injury

Liverpool striker Divock Origi was a late withdrawal from Jurgen Klopp's team in this afternoon's pre-season friendly due to a hamstring injury.

The Belgium international was down to start the match against Hertha Berlin in Germany, but hurt himself during the warm-up.

A statement on Liverpool's official website confirmed that he was taken out of the lineup as a "precautionary measure" after feeling tightness in his hamstring.

Dominic Solanke, who joined the club earlier this month from Chelsea, replaced Origi and managed to get on the scoresheet.

Liverpool will kick off their Premier League season away to Watford on August 12.
