A number of Liverpool fans have been calling for Gini Wijnaldum to leave Liverpool this summer, after The Liverpool Echo claimed Jurgen Klopp is still hoping to convince him to stay.

The Dutchman is coming towards to the end of his fifth season as a Reds player, during which time he has been a wonderful servant.

A surprise signing at the time, back in 2016, Wijnaldum has become a key cog in the machine, knitting things together in the centre of Liverpool's midfield and racking up 230 appearances.

The 30-year-old's current deal expires at the end of this season, however, and he has been continually linked with a move away, namely to Barcelona.

Wijnaldum still hasn't committed his future to the club, but the Liverpool Echo claim that Jurgen Klopp 'hasn't give up hope' of keeping him at Anfield into the future.

Some Liverpool supporters appear to have made their minds up regarding the Netherlands international, however, taking to Twitter to disagree with the manager.

"So we need freshening up with creativity and yet we are still trying to give Wijnaldum a new deal. Joke. He offers nothing now just get rid and buy a young creative dynamic midfielder"
