Lausanne: French side Lille must pay compensation of 300,000 euros ($336,000, 217,000 pounds) to Belgian club Genk in relation to the signing of Divock Origi, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) ruled on Monday.

The decision made at CAS' headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, overrules a previous verdict by football's governing body FIFA in February 2014 which refused Genk's demands for compensation. Belgian international Origi -- now on Liverpool's books -- was trained by Genk before leaving at the age of 15 to sign a professional contract with Ligue 1 outfit Lille.
