Watford are weighing up a move for Liverpool outcast Divock Origi.

The Belgian striker is available with Jurgen Klopp wanting £26million-rated Origi to leave on a permanent basis this summer.

But despite being boosted by the £40m sale of Richarlison to Everton, Watford are currently only looking to take Origi on a year’s loan.

Fellow countryman Michy Batshuayi has also been discussed but Spanish side Valencia are the front-runners to sign the Chelsea hitman.

Origi spent last season on loan at Wolfsburg and returned to Anfield for the start of pre-season.

But with Jurgen Klopp ready to give Daniel Sturridge another chance and Dominic Solanke remaining in the ranks, Origi's first-team hopes appear bleak.

Watford though are keen on signing free agent defender Diego Reyes.

The South American, who has just quit Porto, is in talks over boosting Javi Garcia’s defensive options.
