Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp believes Divock Origi can ease the club's injury problems on the attack after making his first Premier League start in a 0-0 draw at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
The fleet-footed Belgium striker was the chief novelty in the lineup named by Klopp for his first game at the Liverpool helm following his appointment as the successor to the fired Brendan Rodgers.
Origi hit the bar with an early header before fading out of the game, but Klopp said the 20-year-old will get better with experience and revealed he had tried to sign him from Lille during his time as Borussia Dortmund coach.
