    The MLS side are aiming to add the Belgian forward to their attacking ranks and help the former Liverpool cult hero recapture his goalscoring touch. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the Italian side are looking for €5 million ($5.4 million) for the services of Origi. Should the move be agreed, Origi's quiet spell on loan at Nottingham Forest could reach a premature ending.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Once a Premier League fan favourite following a number of late and important goals for Liverpool, Origi returned to England in the red of Forest. However, his loan spell at the City Ground this season has flattered to deceive and all parties appear to be moving in the direction of cutting his time in the Midlands short.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Origi has made just nine appearances in the Premier League this season and is yet to register a goal or an assist. The striker has picked up more yellow cards (one) than goal contributions this season.

    WHAT NEXT FOR ORIGI?

    For the striker's sake, Origi's loan spell at Forest should be coming to an end soon. A move to LAFC in the MLS may allow him to return to some degree of form and will play alongside former Premier League players Hugo Lloris and Carlos Vela.
