He's also reportedly been targeted by other clubs.Opportunities have been hard to come by for the Belgian star at Anfield, and he has played just 14 games in all competitions this season. With the star nearing the end of his contract, there is little chance that the Reds will work towards an extension. His contract ends in the summer and it looks likely he will leave.Due to the abundance of players in his position, Origi has fallen down the pecking order. He would have a better chance of continuing his career elsewhere. He is just 26 years old, which gives him time to rejuvenate his career and choose his future. He will look to settle down at a club that can offer him more playing time.Origi has gained legendary status with the Reds, thanks to his ability to impact the game as a substitute. While Origi might not have a lot to contribute at Anfield due to an abundance of attacking options, he could certainly be a good fit for the Rossonerri.The Reds already have Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota, Roberto Firmino and Takumi Minamino. They also signed Luis Diaz from Porto in January which pushed Origi further down the pecking order.
