Dutch star Georginio Wijnaldum’s deal to Paris Saint-Germain after the expiration of his contract with Liverpool caused a sensation in the Spanish media, especially since the Dutch player was close to joining the ranks of Barcelona, before the deal turned and the player preferred to wear the Princes’ Garden Club shirt.
During his statements, the player hinted at the reason for his refusal to join Barcelona and his preference for moving to Paris, saying, “When a player moves from one club to another, he wants to join a team at the same level or better.” This statement was considered by the Barcelona fans as an insult and belittlement of FC Barcelona
Wijnaldum added, “My impressions of Paris were positive, I knew that it is a cohesive team as one family, and includes many skilled players, under the leadership of a distinguished coach who plans a wonderful collective.”
He continued, “The Paris administration is looking forward to competing for all tournaments, so I said to myself, Wow, I’m going to move to a great team, and it will be a new and suitable environment for me. I hope to provide the required addition and help win all the championships.”
