Divock Origi says 'gut feeling' made him stay on with Liverpool
Liverpool's Divock Origi said it was his 'gut feeling' which made him stay back with the club and turn down a move to Wolves last year.
Leeds: Liverpool's Divock Origi said it was his 'gut feeling' which made him stay back with the club and turn down a move to Wolves last year.
"It was a gut feeling. For me, I just sat down and I felt like I wanted to stay and help this team. I felt good, I just had to keep performing in training and I knew my chance would come," Goal.com quoted Origi as saying.
Origi played a major role during the club's run for the Champions League title as he scored a goal in the tournament's final and helped his club register a 2-0 win over Tottenham.
Moreover, the club could have faced a semi-final exit from the tournament as Barcelona had gained a 3-0 lead in the first leg, but Origi scored twice in the second leg to overcome their first-leg deficit and secure a 4-0 win to reach in the final.
Origi also said that he felt like they could do something 'special'. "I felt like we could do something special. I just had to block everything out and focus on the right things. In football you never know 100 per cent, it could have gone another way but that's the choice I made," he said.
"There might be some difficult moments in the future, as there might be some good moments, I am just preparing for the best," Origi added.
