Wijnaldum: Liverpool teammates know why I'm leaving; I'll soon explain to fans | OneFootball

Departing Liverpool midfielder Gini Wijnaldum has promised fans an explanation why he is leaving Anfield.

Off contract at the end of the month, Wijnaldum is expected to sign for PSG when his deal expires.

He told Voetbal International: “I had to fight with tears (in my last game), because I myself did not expect that everything would be like this.

"I still have a lot of emotions, because I realise that I have already played the last match for Liverpool. Many fans ask me why I couldn't just go and agree to the contract that was offered. But, of course, this is not the only point.

"Things happen behind the scenes that I can't control, because I'm a player. I will explain this after the Euros, because now only the national team matters. I want to say that the staff at the training centre, club staff and teammates wanted me to stay. I told them more. After that, they fully understood my decision. This is important for me."
