Pool rushing through new Origi deal
Liverpool makes haste with the contract extension of Divock Origi (24). The English club did a first proposal for the opening up of its current agreement, which runs another year. A listing that the attacker has taken under consideration. Origi wants nothing rushed, given the few minutes of play the past year. Also other clubs follow his situation: his performance of the past week and his double in the semifinals of the Champions League have put him on the radar of other candidates.

GKs on the move
AS have learned that the Premier League, and in particular The Red Devils, is seen as an attractive proposition for the Costa Rican and those around him. We also heard from Spanish programme El Partidazo on COPE that the player has been studying English for some time now. But, on the other side, there is a decision to be made by De Gea. His contract runs out in 2020, but he has not ruled out continuing in the location that has been his home since leaving Atlético Madrid in 2011. A move back to the Spanish capital looks unlikely - not because of malfunctioning fax machines - but due to Los Blancos putting their faith in an another rojiblanco, Thibaut Courtois. We will watch with interest to see if this glove triangle works out for all parties concerned.
