Georginio Wijnaldum has reportedly rejected Liverpool's latest contract offer as he has already decided that he wants to join Barcelona.

The Netherlands international is into the final six months of his existing deal and is therefore able to discuss terms over an end-of-season transfer with foreign clubs.

Liverpool had been hopeful of convincing Wijnaldum to extend his contract and stay on for at least another year, but Todo Fichajes suggests that he has rejected the renewal as the Reds were unwilling to match his demands.

It is claimed that the 30-year-old will instead wait for his contract to expire in the summer and join Barca on a free contract.

Wijnaldum has featured 24 times for Liverpool in all competitions this season, scoring one goal and assisting none. body check tags ::
