AC Milan’s first signing of the summer looks set to be Divock Origi as the striker is close to leaving Liverpool on a free transfer, according to a report.
According to The Athletic, Origi will ‘wave goodbye’ to Liverpool in the coming months and the Belgian’s last game for the club could be the Champions League final against Real Madrid, given that his deal expires in June.
The 27-year-old had a clause in his current contract which dictated that a certain number of appearances would have triggered a one-year extension on the deal he signed back in 2019, but he has not reached that threshold.
The report adds that the representatives of the former Wolfsburg and Lille forward ‘have been in advanced talks’ with Milan over a move to Italy, so it seems that Origi will swap Merseyside for Milano in the coming months and the Rossoneri’s attack will get an injection of youth.
