Liverpool fans have been dreading looking at the news recently. It has felt at times as though every update has been a negative one. This player’s injured, that player’s ill, the sky is falling, the sky is falling. Finally we have some good news to get excited about. Kopites on Twitter have been ecstatic about Liverpool reportedly restarting talks with Gini Wijnaldum over a new contract.
Sunday superstar
This weekend we saw a superlative display from Gini Wijnaldum.
The Dutchman netted a sublime goal for the Reds against Wolves.
Jordan Henderson set Liverpool on the break and moments later Gini curled one into the top right corner.
It was a finish for the ages and a performance for the books.
He was absolutely everywhere on the pitch and he finished the game with a 98% passing accuracy.
Sunday truly was a reminder of just how important Gini is to this Liverpool side.

However, the Reds are allegedly looking to put a halt to any interest in the midfielder.
According to The Guardian, Liverpool are to restart talks with Gini Wijnaldum about a new contract.
