Everton interested in former Liverpool player Wijnaldum

Everton are one of the four Premier League clubs showing an interest in former Liverpool player Georginio Wijnaldum.

Wijnaldum has failed to cement a regular place in the PSG side under Mauricio Pochettino, starting only nine games in 2022. The Dutch midfielder could now leave the club, and a return to the Premier League is on the cards.

According to 90min, PSG will allow Wijnaldum to leave the club this summer, with Everton, West Ham, Wolves, and Leicester all interested in securing his signature.

The French club may have to accept a loan move for the 31-year-old, due to his high wages and two years still left on his deal.
