And they posted a special farewell message on social media, writing: 'Divock Origi will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of June. 

'Thank you for an incredible eight years of service and leaving us with so many special memories.

Divock Origi, Liverpool legend.'

The club also posted a video montage of Origi's best moments in a Liverpool shirt. 

'I will miss these boys a lot,' Origi said after Liverpool celebrated this season's Carabao Cup and FA Cup triumphs.

'I have been here eight years, but I feel my purpose is done.'

Origi was given a guard of honour following Liverpool's final game of the season 

Origi helped Liverpool to the Carabao Cup and FA Cup double this season 

During his time at Liverpool, Origi has racked up 175 appearances across all competitions, scoring 41 goals.

However, he is likely to be remembered for the big moments that he delivered rather than his overall statistics.

The 27-year-old played a key role in Liverpool's 2019 Champions League victory, netting a brace in his side's improbable comeback win against Barcelona in the semi-finals, and then coming off the bench to score late in the all-English final against Tottenham.

He also has a phenomenal record in the Merseyside derby, having scored six times in 10 matches against Everton, which endeared him to fans even more. 

Origi has been strongly linked to AC Milan and his exit will cause more of an outpouring of support from Liverpool fans than the departure of Karius, who will be remembered for his hapless display against Real Madrid in the 2017/18 Champions League final defeat. 

Loris Karius will be remembered for his display in losing to Real Madrid back in 2018

Karius was in tear after the game and was found to have suffered a concussion 

He was subsequently ruled to have suffered a concussion, which Jurgen Klopp has lamented is not spoken about enough when referring to the error-strewn display.
