Former Liverpool forward Divock Origi has broken his year-long silence with a touching message having slipped into oblivion following his nightmare AC Milan transfer.
Divock Origi has endured a tough time since leaving Liverpool for AC Milan in the summer of 2022.
The Belgian striker ended his six-year-stay at Liverpool following the end of his contract and moved to AC Milan as a free agent but what seemed to be a promising move quickly turned into a nightmare.
Origi signed a four-year contract worth a net salary of €4 million per year at Milan but he only played 1,187 minutes and scored two goals before the Italian giants decided that he was not cut for them.
