Arsenal To Bid To Sign Former Liverpool Midfielder

Arsenal has surfaced as a prospective destination for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum, looking to leave the club.

According to Sky Sports, Arsenal has been connected with Georginio Wijnaldum. Arsenal is the latest club to be linked with a bid for the midfielder. It looks as if the North London giants are aware of the midfielder’s current predicament at Paris Saint-Germain, with the player reportedly interested in returning to the Premier League during the forthcoming January transfer window.

Arsenal is preparing to welcome Wijnaldum back to the Premier League next month. However, they will face heavy competition from the player’s former club, Newcastle United, in the process. The two teams are keeping an eye on the development of the Dutch international, who has struggled since joining Paris Saint-Germain in the summer of this year.

Wijnaldum has struggled a lot to adapt to Paris

Wijnaldum has struggled to adapt to life in the French top division this season, which is about halfway through the campaign. He has been unable to generate much creativity in the centre of the pitch and is thus not a good match for Mauricio Pochettino’s tactical approach in the Ligue 1. Consequently, he has slipped behind players like Marco Verratti, Idrissa Gueye, Ander Herrera, and even Danilo Pereira in the pecking order, having made just seven starts in the league so far this season.

The lack of playing time has caused the Dutchman to become dissatisfied with Pochettino, and he is now seeking a way out of his current situation with PSG. He has several teams interested in offering him the chance to get his career back on track. Arsenal is one of those clubs.

With Granit Xhaka, Thomas Partey, and Albert Sambi Lokonga all out of the picture, Arsenal are on the search for another midfielder to compete with them in the coming months. Arsenal may also need further depth in the centre of the park since Mohamed Elneny’s future at the club is questionable due to interest from Newcastle United.

Wijnaldum may serve as a fresh choice for Arsenal

For various reasons, Wijnaldum may be the best choice for Arteta at this point. The Dutchman has around 250 competitive outings under his belt for Liverpool, giving him a plethora of knowledge and experience in English football. The midfielder, who has won the Premier League and the Champions League with Liverpool, may also bring a winning attitude to the club, which might benefit Arsenal.

Despite this, according to the source, PSG is unwilling to authorize his exit during the forthcoming January transfer window, most likely owing to worries over the team’s midfield depth. It has the potential to be a significant setback for Arsenal as they continue their quest for new midfield players.
