Fabrizio Romano has provided an update on the Gini Wijnaldum contract saga at Liverpool, and the bad news is that there’s currently no news at all.
Wijnaldum has been a key figure in everything Liverpool have achieved under Jurgen Klopp and remains as significant as ever in the dressing room at Anfield.
The Dutchman’s contract is due to expire at the end of the season, which threatens to leave a major void in not only Klopp’s squad, but his starting eleven.

He is of course free to negotiate with clubs as a free agent, having so little time left on his contract, and the more the days tick by towards June, the more likely an exit becomes.
Romano has provided the latest on the situation, with Wijnaldum seemingly still not having replied to a contract offer made by Liverpool way back in December.
There’s still no agreement between Wijnaldum and Liverpool to extend the contract. Last bid was made in early December, Gini has not accepted yet.
It’s getting complicated after 7 months of negotiations… Liverpool are still waiting for the definitive answer. ? #lfc https://t.co/NHJi6rGAYe
