Liverpool and Wijnaldum at stalemate over new contract talks

Liverpool and Gini Wijnaldum are at stalemate over new contract talks.

Sky Sports says a long-standing offer of a new deal remains on the table. But for now, the 30-year old Dutch midfielder has not accepted it.

But suggestions that Wijnaldum has turned down a new contract offer from Liverpool are wide of the mark.

The player, who is out of contract in the summer, wants to stay at Anfield, but believes his wages should compare more favourably with the clubs top earners.

Jurgen Klopp has made it clear he wishes to keep Wijnaldum, who has played in all of Liverpool's 17 Premier League games this season.
