Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum refuses to be drawn on the recent reports linking him with a move to Barcelona.

Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum has branded suggestions that he has already agreed a move to Barcelona this summer "only rumours".

The 29-year-old's contract with the Premier League champions is due to expire next summer, and the speculation linking him with a move away from Anfield continues to gather pace.

A recent report claimed that Wijnaldum had agreed personal terms with Barca, who could sign him for as little as £13m during this summer's transfer window due to his contract situation.

However, when quizzed on his future and a possible switch to Camp Nou, the Netherlands international told reporters: "They are only rumours. At the moment I can't say anything."

Wijnaldum, who scored six times in 47 appearances for the Reds during the 2019-20 campaign, is allegedly viewed by new Barca boss Ronald Koeman as a key part of the club's rebuild.

Lionel Messi, meanwhile, is said to be considering making a U-turn on his decision to leave Camp Nou.
