Liverpool forward Divock Origi has admitted that it would be “painful” to lose the Premier League title due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The season has been halted since early March due to the spread of COVID-19, with no restart date yet to be set.
Some have called for the 2019-20 to be ruled null and void, ensuring Liverpool will lose the top spot, and Origi says it will be hard to bear. The Reds are keeping a 25-point advantage on second-placed Manchester City with a game in hand, leaving them with two first top-flight crown wins in three decades.
“We are not yet at the club,” he is quoted as saying about club training by The Mirror. “It’s all pretty unclear here in England. We don’t even train in small groups.
“It would be painful if we can’t get that title now. But there are things in life that you cannot control. Safety is the most important thing now.”
