Report: Liverpool lead chase to sign Belgium's Divock Origi

Liverpool are reportedly close to signing Belgium and Lille youngster Divock Origi.

The 19-year-old became his nation's youngest goalscorer at the World Cup as he found the winning goal against Russia in a 1-0 victory on Sunday.

According to The Express, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal have been linked with the teen's services, but Liverpool are favourites to sign him for what could be a fee of around £6m.

Reports have claimed that Lille will request that Liverpool send Origi back to the French club for a season-long loan.
