AC Milan are set to announce the signing of Divock Origi in the coming hours, with the player [arriving in Italy](https://twitter.com/SempreMilanCom/status/1541463382355836928?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1541463382355836928%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fd-36405977292149638044.ampproject.net%2F2206101637000%2Fframe.html) to complete the transfer as of yesterday. All details for the move have been agreed, and the striker is set to be their first signing of the season following their Serie A title win. 

There were offers from Villarreal and several other Bundesliga clubs for the Belgian, but he always wanted to move to San Siro. And now, it is only a matter of time before his arrival is officially announced by the club.

The forward scored 65 career goals in 302 appearances, featuring for [Liverpool](https://technosports.co.in/2022/06/26/takumi-minamino-to-monaco-confirmed/), Wolfsburg and Lille. He has grown a reputation as a supersub during his time at Anfield, making an impact off the bench in several Merseyside derbies and important games. 

His most memorable moment in a Liverpool shirt was the match-winning goal in the Champions League semi-final against Barcelona, overturning a massive deficit to send his team to the final against all odds. 

But due to a lack of first team action, he decided to move on to a club where he could be a regular. With an aging Olivier Giroud and injured Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Divock Origi will be able to provide a great impact for the club due to his sleek finishing. The 27-year-old will be a valuable addition to the front-line, as the Rossoneri aim to follow up on their success from last year.
