Georginio Wijnaldum, the star midfielder of Al-Ettifaq, is living his last months at the club. Sport24.az reports that although the 35-year-old footballer's contract with the Saudi representative expires in June 2026, the parties are expected to part ways sooner.
According to reports, Al-Ettifaq does not have enough budget to offer Wijnaldum a new contract. Journalist Ben Jacobs notes that the parties are preparing to part ways by mutual agreement. Only an increase in the budget at the last moment can change the situation.
Wijnaldum's national team career is not over yet. According to reports, the head coach of the Netherlands national team, Ronald Koeman, may include the star player in the World Cup squad. The future fate of the football player will be known definitively at the end of May.
According to Sky Sports, the 35-year-old footballer does not intend to end his career. He aims to return to the English Premier League, where his star shone with the jerseys of Newcastle and Liverpool.
