Report: Liverpool close in on Dejan Lovren, Divock Origi signings

Liverpool are reportedly close to completing the signings of Southampton defender Dejan Lovren and Lille striker Divock Origi.

The Reds saw a £20m bid for Lovren turned down two weeks ago, but the Croatia international has asked to leave the Saints just a year after joining them from Lyon.

Origi has been linked with several Premier League sides after impressing for Belgium at the World Cup in Brazil.

According to BBC Sport, Liverpool's bid for Lovren has been revived, while the Anfield club have agreed a £10m deal for Origi.

Reports have also suggested that the Merseyside outfit have agreed to pay £8.5m for Queens Park Rangers forward Loic Remy.
