Thickness, physicality, strength, quality, goals and assists. And experience. Quality that José Mourinho has always sought and that he will soon find in the legs and head of Gerogino Wijnaldum, landed in Rome now and expected tomorrow for medical examinations and signature on the contract. With PSG the team has been found: loan with the right of redemption that can become an obligation with the achievement of the Champions League by Roma and with the involvement in at least 50% of the challenges by the Dutchman. A bang, given the caliber and the figures of the operation.
Gini’s career
Thirty-two years to complete in November, Gini’s career begins in the youth teams of Sparta Rotterdam first and then in those of Feyenoord. And precisely in Rotterdam Wijnaldum begins to get noticed for all the qualities listed above: with Feyenoord there will be 135 appearances with 25 goals and 11 assists. With PSV then 153 chips with as many as 56 goals and 24 assists. From there the direct flight to England: 40 appearances and 11 goals with Newcastle were enough for Liverpool to invest in him. And that with the Reds is the player’s most lasting experience to date: 237 appearances, 22 goals and 16 assists. Then the move to PSG, where in the last season he put together 38 appearances with 3 goals and 3 assists. In total the Dutchman’s career chips are 605, with 119 goals and 56 assists. Numbers that would make you think more of an attacker than a midfielder.
