Jurgen Klopp describes moment that convinced him to trust Divock Origi

Divock Origi signed a new long-term Liverpool contract after his last season heroics. The 24-year-old scored a double in Liverpool's 4-0 comeback against barcelona as well as he scored in their final 2-0 win over Tottenham. Livrepool boss Jurgen Klopp has revealed the reason why he offered a new long-term contract to Origi. "He grew and grew and grew, in training sessions you could see it: ‘Wow!’ It was then not sure about the centre so he played a couple of games on the left wing," Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com. "He did well there, it’s obviously not his natural position but he can play it in a specific way, in a very offensive way. “Then in training again, you saw ‘OK, now he is ready again for No.9’ and he did that and scored the goals. That helped obviously, he scored unbelievably important goals and here we are. “We wanted to sign him again, to extend the contract, and the nice thing is he wanted to as well. He realised it was a tough time [but] we never gave him up in that time, [we never said] ‘OK, that will never work again’, but sometimes in football you don’t have enough time. “Thankfully we had enough time that we could kind of wait until he is ready again. Now he is this wonderful player again so it’s great to have him and I’m really, really happy about the signing.”
