# Liverpool: Fans flock to Gini Wijnaldum update

**Gini Wijnaldum has completed his move from Liverpool to Paris St Germain, following an official confirmation on Thursday \[[Liverpool FC Official](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/435817-georginio-wijnaldum-to-join-paris-saint-germain)\].**

Spending five successful years on Merseyside, the Netherlands international made 237 appearances in front of the Kop faithful, registering 22 goals and 16 assists \[[Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/georginio-wijnaldum/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/49499)\].

Within that timeframe, he helped the club win the UEFA Champions League, Premier League, Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup \[[Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/georginio-wijnaldum/erfolge/spieler/49499)\], so it is no surprise to see quite an emotional reaction from fans after his departure was confirmed.
