Liverpool and Netherland midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum says he does not think Barcelona’s interest in him “was that serious”. According to the Netherland international who was linked with a move to Spanish giant Barcelona following the arrival of new Dutch boss Ronald Koeman taking over as manager of the Nou Camp outfit.
Georginio Wijnaldum’s contract with Liverpool runs out next summer. According to him, he said: “The way it looks now, I will stay in Liverpool.” “My contract is valid for another 10 months and that can change. You never know in football.”
On Barcelona’s interest, the 29-year-old player said: “I don’t think it was that serious.” “Otherwise you would have read a bit more, or more would have happened.” Liverpool signed Wijnaldum from Newcastle United for £25m in July 2016.
He has helped the Reds win the Premier League, Champions League and Club World Cup during his time at Anfield. Reds boss Jurgen Klopp said earlier this summer that the situation between “me, Gini and the club” was “fine” and he has started Wijnaldum in each of his side’s four league games this season.
