He was one of the big names in the past transfer market. One day close, the other far. So was the summer of Georginio Wijnaldum, Dutch footballer who was strongly linked to Barcelona, especially as a result of the arrival of his compatriot and former coach Ronald Koeman. However, that interest remained in borage water, enduring one more season (the last) wearing the red colors of the current champion of the Premier League. Since the contract ends at the end of the next course after rejecting the renewal offer.
In fact, Wijnaldum has returned to the scene. And is that his good performance with the Netherlands in the tulip match against Bosnia increases his cache. He scored a double that, therefore, means registering a total of 12 goals in his last 19 caps with the national team (in addition to scoring 7 of the last 12 goals for the Dutch). Some numbers that reflect his great effectiveness in front of goal when he dresses in the color orange. A duel that resulted in Frank de Boer's first triumph (3-1) as coach with, paradoxically, a target from another player who is still in the orbit of Barça: Memphis Depay. Holland, in this way, is provisional leader (in the absence of Italy-Poland) of Group 1 of the League of Nations.
Therefore, Wijnaldum will be one of the main bargains from 2021. A multipurpose footballer with arrival, sacrifice, as well as a good ball kick and a header (despite his 1.75 m). Perhaps it does not fit perfectly in the Barça philosophy, cases like Paulinho or Arturo Vidal are the last examples. But nevertheless, Koeman's insistence on his signing can make him a fundamental piece as a figure to unblock matches. A true specialist in the field who could bring a somewhat different role to Barcelona. We will see if this time, when the river sounds, it has real water.
