Wijnaldum had wanted more time to determine his future but the
claim in Spain is that he’s now settled on Barcelona.
Since last summer’s transfer
window ended and Gini Wijnaldum entered the final year of his
Liverpool contract having rejected previous attempts by the club to
sign him to a new deal, the general belief has been that this is
likely his last season at Anfield.
Despite that, recent reports from journalists connected to
Liverpool had the key midfielder still not having made a final
decision and wanting more time. Today, though, at least one outlet
in Spain is claiming Wijnaldum’s mind is made up on Barcelona.
At least if you believe Todofichajes, who claim they have been told by
their sources that Wijnaldum has rejected Liverpool’s latest offer,
with the player determined to join Barcelona on a free in the
summer as the Catalan club’s first offseason signing.

It’s worth taking the report with a grain of salt, with the
outlet in question hardly at the top of the reliability list when
it comes to Barcelona transfer chatter, but the reality remains
that the 30-year-old midfielder’s most likely future is away from
Liverpool.
With the club having made multiple attempts to extend Wijnaldum
stretching back into 2019 now, if there was common ground and a
deal to be done between player and club it likely would have been a
long time ago now.
