Divock Origi announces retirement | OneFootball

Former Liverpool and AC Milan striker Divock Origi has announced his retirement from football aged 31.

Origi scored 41 goals in 175 appearances for Liverpool and won a Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup with the club.

Speaking to Sky Sports regarding his retirement, Origi said: “I’ve been blessed to win some of the biggest trophies in the game.

“But more than that, I’m proud to have contributed to teams that will forever be remembered in the history of football, clubs like Liverpool that have shaped the game and will keep shaping it.

“And alongside that, I’m proud of who football made me. It helped shape me into the man I was created to be. It shaped my faith.

“I have no regrets. Every journey has its challenges, but through my faith, I’ve always believed that every challenge came to sharpen me, either as a man or to push me to grow as a player, to sharpen my craft.

“That’s how it was meant to be. I embraced every celebration and every challenge, because both made me the player and the man I am today.”
