CorSport: Origi’s wait is nearly over – when he should play his first game for Milan

AC Milan fans have been eagerly awaiting the debut of Divock Origi and they should not have to wait too much longer, a report claims.

According to Corriere dello Sport (via SempreMilan.it), the long-awaited debut of Origi with the Milan shirt is approaching. The Belgian striker has recovered from the muscle problem that forced him to miss the back end of last season and has disrupted his start to life at Milan.

He is training well together with his new team-mates, and the paper believes that Sunday’s match against Marseille could be the first time that we see him get minutes in a game situation.

However, Simon Kjaer was expected to play against Wolfsberger last night and did not, so it could be that Origi is handled carefull and if that were the case then the last preseason test against Vicenza on August 6 could be the right game for his debut.
