Liverpool striker Divock Origi is "excited" to join up with the club this summer following a season on loan with Ligue 1 side Lille.

Liverpool striker Divock Origi has spoken of his excitement at experiencing the Anfield atmosphere when he joins up with the club next season.

The 20-year-old Belgian international signed for the Reds following an impressive World Cup campaign last summer but was loaned back to Lille for the entire 2014-15 campaign.

He will begin his Liverpool career this year, however, and he revealed that he has been talking to compatriot Simon Mignolet about what to expect on Merseyside.

"He told me it is a special feeling, but that's something I knew already," Origi told the club's official website.

"He told me before every game there is a fantastic atmosphere from the supporters and everybody at the club, which helps you to play even better. It makes me excited because it's something I want to experience."

Origi has scored seven goals in 28 league games for Lille this season.
