Divock Origi says “a gut feeling” told him to stay at Liverpool and the striker is ready to kick on from the Champions League-winning goals which changed his life.
The 24-year-old did not start a Premier League game last season before December and could have left Anfield in January.
But now – fresh from goals against Barcelona and Tottenham which helped Liverpool to their sixth European Cup – he has signed a new long-term deal.
He is set to start the season up front.
First-choice attackers Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino have all missed Liverpool’s pre-season tour of the US after long summers with their nations.
Mane is not due back at the club until after the Community Shield on 4 August.
“It is a lot to happen in a year,” Origi said. “And that’s the beauty of football.
