Wijnaldum joined Roma.
The love story between Georginio Wijnaldum (31) and Paris Saint-Germain lasted only one season. Arrived in the summer of 2021, free, after a successful stint in Liverpool, the Dutch midfielder never managed to convince in the French capital. An acknowledgment of failure that pushed him into exile.
PSG could recover €10m
Under pressure from Louis van Gaal, who did not hold him back during the last rallies with the Dutch national team, the former Newcastle player was clearly not the most difficult to convince to leave the Parc des Princes. After short negotiations, he finally decided to try his luck in a new championship, Serie A, on the side of AS Roma, to evolve there under the orders of Jos Mourinho.
Amen to take over from Jordan Veretout, just transferred to Olympique de Marseille, the Oranje, seen in the Italian capital on Thursday, was ready until the end of the exercise by the reigning French champion. A temporary transfer which includes a compulsory purchase option of 10 million euros if the Batavian participates in half of the matches of the Louve and if the latter qualifies for the Champions League 2023-2024.
time for revenge
To try to regain the confidence of his coach, Wijnaldum will have to seriously raise his level of play and forget his only terrible exercise in Paris, where he posted a poor record of 3 goals in 38 games. Problem of adaptation, bad use by Mauricio Pochettino, level simply too low, the semi-finalist of the 2014 World Cup will quickly have to pull himself together. For the good of Roma. But also that of PSG.
