# Everton: Fans enjoy Gini Wijnaldum transfer link

**Lots of Everton fans have been lauding a transfer link to former Liverpool midfielder Gini Wijnaldum.**

As per a report from earlier in the week by [90min](https://www.90min.com/posts/gini-wijnaldum-offered-on-loan-several-premier-league-clubs), which has since been shared by [EFC Daily](https://twitter.com/EFCdaily_/status/1469447689091887104) on their Twitter feed, Rafael Benitez is now ready to battle his former club Newcastle United to sign the Paris Saint-Germain player, of whom he is a ‘big fan’.

Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United, Leicester City and Aston Villa are other Premier League clubs [believed to be interested](https://www.90min.com/posts/gini-wijnaldum-offered-on-loan-several-premier-league-clubs) in signing Wijnaldum in the January transfer window, should he be made available by the Ligue 1 leaders.

Even though he is a former Liverpool player, the Netherlands international would likely improve Benitez’s team given his pedigree in the game, having [won](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/georginio-wijnaldum/erfolge/spieler/49499) both the Premier League and Champions League with the Reds and earned [85 caps](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/georginio-wijnaldum/nationalmannschaft/spieler/49499/verein_id/3379) for his country.

He has shown that he is more than capable of adding goals and assists from midfield in the English top flight, with 43 such contributions in 217 games in the division ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/georginio-wijnaldum/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/49499/plus/0?saison=&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=GB1&pos=&trainer_id=)), and he could be a very shrewd addition at Goodison Park.

These Everton supporters lauded the transfer news as it was shared on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/EFCdaily_/status/1469447689091887104), with one of them hailing the Dutchman as a “proper player”:
