Divock Origi's classy touch for graduating University of Liverpool students

Liverpool striker Divock Origi sent a heartfelt congratulations message to the University of Liverpool graduating class of 2020 and 2021.

The university held the first of their in-person graduation ceremonies for the two classes on Friday, which was also streamed live online.

Last year's ceremony had to be postponed due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

Origi's message to those who graduated on Friday was posted on the University of Liverpoo's Twitter page and had been viewed nearly 30,000 times.

"I hope you guys enjoy and wishing all the best for the future."

The Belgian is hoping to be fit enough to face Arsenal on Saturday evening having picked up a dead leg in midweek while representing Belgium on international duty.
