Juventus have today been linked with a January transfer for Liverpool striker Divock Origi.

Origi is reportedly a target for the Serie A giants, who are said to be on the lookout for a replacement for Mario Mandzukic.

That's according to Italian outlet Calciomercato who reported that Belgian forward Origi is Juve's number one target to replace the Croatian striker.

Origi enjoyed a good season under Jurgen Klopp last term, scoring 10 goals in all competitions.

Origi has scored twice this season, both goals in the League Cup, but has struggled for a starting berth in Klopp's team.

The report also states that should Juventus fail in a bid for Origi, they could turn their attentions to Daniel Sturridge.

Meanwhile today, Melbourne Victory striker Besart Berisha insists that Liverpool were interested in signing him back in 2007.

The now 31-year-old reckons an impressive performance for Albania's B team alerted scouts of both the Reds and Man United - but he eventually moved to Burnley.

He didn't make a single appearance for the Clarets in two years with the club..

“Really I remember all the Premier League clubs looked at me but Burnley signed me quick," Berisha said.

“But I heard other clubs were interested too. My manager told me something about Manchester United and Liverpool were also interested."
