Despite this seemingly being the case for the past month or so, we appear to be heading towards the end of the Divock Origi transfer saga.

The Liverpool player is out of contract at Anfield in the summer, but despite Milan being in talks for quite some time with the Belgian, no final agreement has been found.

That’s because, according to Calciomercato, it’s still being worked on, as the website, over the weekend, explain ‘the final details’ will be ‘settled in the next few days’.

In fact, it’s made very clear there is ‘great confidence in reaching the finish line for a player strongly wanted by Paolo Maldini’, who helps oversee the transfers in and out of the Serie A side.

The Liverpool forward is expected to be the first of two strikers to end up at Milan this summer ‘barring unforeseen circumstances’.

The other could be Gianluca Scamacca from Sassuolo, whom Juventus also want, while Amine Gouiri could also be an option.

Signing from Lille in 2014, Origi has made a name for himself at Liverpool over the past few years with his important goals in crucial games without ever managing to secure a starting spot with the likes of Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mané ahead of him.

In that time, he has scored 40 goals and assisted another 17 in 171 appearances for the Reds in all competitions.
