Everton want former Liverpool star Georginio Wijnaldum

90min are reporting this morning that Leicester City, Everton, Wolves and West Ham all keen on securing the services of former Liverpool star Wijnaldum.

Paris Saint-Germain have reportedly decided to sell the £180,000-a-week (SalarySport) Netherlands international midfielder in the summer transfer window.

Wijnaldum joined PSG only last summer on a free transfer after leaving Liverpool at the end of last season.

During his time at Anfield, the 31-year-old established himself as an important player under manager Klopp and helped the Reds win the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League.

Unlikely Goodison Park transfer

In our opinion, it is very unlikely that former Liverpool star Georginio Wijnaldum will move to Everton in the summer transfer window.

We know that Liverpool and Everton are Merseyside rivals, and we do not think that the midfielder will want to damage the relationship he has with the Anfield faithful by moving to Goodison Park.

Moreover, Wijnaldum is used to challenging for and winning major trophies, which he would not be able to do at PSG.
