Liverpool star Georginio Wijnaldum wanted by PSG on free transfer as French giants join Barcelona in race for midfielder


PSG are targeting Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum on a free transfer, according to reports.

Wijnaldum, 30, is yet to agree a new deal at Anfield and his contract expires in the summer.

Barcelona have held a long-term interest in the Netherlands international but PSG are keen to pip them to a deal.

And Wijnaldum will be a top priority for the French champions, report Le Parisien.

The outlet claims PSG are targeting a host of stars whose contracts are set to expire, including Lionel Messi, David Alaba and Sergio Aguero.

Wijnaldum may be their most realistic target, however, as he is seemingly keen on a move away from The Reds.

Also, PSG may be a more attractive proposition to the midfielder after they thrashed Barcelona in the Champions League last week.

He could receive a big pay rise too, as he is reportedly on £75,000 a week at Liverpool.

Inter Milan, Wolves, and Real Madrid are among the other clubs to have registered an interest in Wijnaldum.

The Premier League winner may be best suited to PSG as manager Mauricio Pochettino will know all about him from his Tottenham spell.

If he is to leave Anfield he will have given five years of service to the club, and should be remembered for his role in their recent success.

He has been ever-present this term with three goals in 35 games in all competitions, but it seems he has his mind set on moving elsewhere.
