Georginio Wijnaldum 'would like to play for Arsenal' and could be loaned out from PSG

Georginio Wijnaldum 'is open to the idea of joining Arsenal', having failed to nail down a place in the PSG side since signing as a free agent.

The Dutch midfielder, who won the Champions League and Premier League with Liverpool, is unwilling to force an exit so soon into his career in the French capital but would leave for the right opportunity.

According to Sky Sports, Wijnaldum is long-time admirer of Arsenal and is eyeing a move to the Emirates.

Kaveh Solhekol told the transfer show: 'The situation is Gini Wijnaldum is out injured at the moment. He's not going to come out in public and say, 'I want to leave PSG', because you wouldn't want to spoil your relationship with the fans

'But what we're being told is he would like to return to the Premier League. I'm not saying he wants to return today, this week or even in the summer, but he would like to return and we keep being told he would like to play for Arsenal.

'They're a club he admired a lot when he was growing up. It's definitely something that appeals to him.

'If PSG were to sign (Tanguy) Ndombele on loan, would they let one of their midfielders go?

'Would Wijnaldum then become an option for Arsenal? We know Arsenal are looking for a midfielder.

'PSG have consistently said, 'we don't want him to leave'.'

There is a chance that if PSG take Ndombele on loan, Wijnaldum could end up on the white side of north London in a potential swap deal.

But with Mauricio Pochettino preferring Marco Verratti, Danilo Pereira, Ander Herrera and Leandro Paredes in midfield, it seems consistent game time in Paris will evade the well-rounded midfielder if he stays.
