AC Milan have been forced to open up to the idea of letting Divock Origi leave on a loan deal late in the window, according to a report.
As reported by Sky (via MilanNews), Milan are now happy to let the Belgian leave on a loan with option to buy deal having previously only been willing to accept a permanent deal.
There are two Italian clubs who are interested in signing the former Liverpool man, namely Udinese and Torino, with the Granata having the advantage at the moment.
However, the Milan management have made it clear that they do not want to make any contributions to Origi’s salary if he is to go out on loan, meaning whoever wants him must cover his full pay which is over €5m gross.
It is clear now that Origi is not a part of the plans of Stefano Pioli, having left him out of the tour of the USA and the squad for the first two league games of the season.
they will leave him without play and training with first squad, forcing him to accept saude offer.
He won’t accept a suede offer.
This is not good for the dressing room
Integrating him into the first squad’s training and trying to give him minutes is not good for for the whole team inside the dressing room, outside the dressing room, at the players’ homes, at their parents’ homes, at the Milanello parking lot, E-V-E-R-Y-W-H-E-R-E.
People here talking like this is Football Manager game. I can’t see Origi going anywhere except Milan does not request a fee. He does not have to take any deal he is not comfortable with. Not everyone wants to go to Saudi, players are only going for the money and they are not splashing on Origi.
He’s on €5m a year, except a European clubs pays him close to that, he’ll sit out the year.
The best solution is to loan him to where he can get game time and increase his value
