Many Liverpool fans have been pleading with the club to give midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum a new contract, suggesting it could be a ‘massive mistake’ to not extend his current deal.

90MIN revealed on Thursday that the Holland international is keen to extend his stay on Merseyside, but there is still no progress towards a new deal, and the turn of the year brings with it the threat of European clubs coming calling.
Wijnaldum has been a key asset to Liverpool over the years, scoring a memorable brace during his side’s 4-0 win over Barcelona, on their way to winning the club’s sixth European crown in Madrid.
