Liverpool offer Wijnaldum massive wage increase to ward off interest from Inter Milan in the midfielder

Reports from ESPN are suggesting that Liverpool FC are gearing up to offer as much as a 40% increase in wages to in-demand star midfielder Gini Wijnaldum, whose current deal with the Premier League champions expires next summer.

The Dutch international, a reported long-term target for FC Barcelona, has been eyed by Serie A giants Inter Milan as well of late, with the Italian side looking up the possibility of signing the Dutch international on a free transfer.

Wijnaldum has come of much importance to Jurgen Klopp’s side this ongoing season following injuries to first-team midfield regulars Naby Keita, Fabinho, and Thiago Alcantara. He has turned out in the central midfield on a number of occasions alongside skipper Jordan Henderson, garnering plaudits for his tireless efforts in the centre of the park.

However, with his deal getting set to expire within a very short period of time, Liverpool FC will be focusing efforts on tying the 29-year-old to a long-term deal beyond the summer of 2021.

A wage increase, as reports suggest, is likely to tempt the player on extending his stay at Anfield, despite him having snubbed talks of sealing an exit from Liverpool FC in a recent press interview.
