The details behind Gini Wijnaldum’s Liverpool contract have been revealed.
According to the Newcastle Chronicle, the Dutch international will sign a 5-year, £75,000 a week deal if he passes his Liverpool medical on Friday.
They report that our offer will see him pick up a pay increase of £15,000 per week.
They also claim that he has “gone through the first part of his medical” – a claim backed up by SkySports but refuted by the arguably more reliable Liverpool Echo.

The player has said his goodbyes to staff and teammates at St James’ Park, with the local paper adding that he’s leaving the club on good terms.
Interestingly, they conclude by saying that Rafa and Klopp have a great relationship, and as such, there could be loan deals between the clubs even though nothing has been included in the Gini deal. It’s understood the Spaniard wants to add at least two new names to his side before the Championship season begins.
