Despite being at PSG with Messi: Wijnaldum admitted that he does not feel “completely happy”

Not even with Lionel Messi as a teammate does he feel happy. Georginio Wijnaldum was one of the signings that arrived at Paris Saint-Germain this season, however, Mauricio Pochettino has hardly placed the Dutch player. For this reason, the former Liverpool admitted to being worried and not feeling “completely happy” at PSG.

In conversation with the newspaper NOS, Wijnaldum revealed his feelings about his first months in Paris: “I cannot say that I am completely happy (at PSG). Because the situation is not what I would like, but this is football and I will have to learn to deal with it. I’m a fighter. I have to be positive and work hard to turn the situation around. “

“I have played a lot in recent years, I have always been in shape and I have done very well. This is something different and it takes time to get used to. I really wanted this new stage and, when it comes, this happens. It’s complicated”, added the attacker.

The player also spoke with FIFA in which he talks about some of his teammates at PSG and the Netherlands National Team. He appreciated being able to be so close to Lionel Messi on the team. “Seeing greatness from such a short distance is difficult to describe. He is one of the best players ever ”.

“Watching him train every day is a real honor. And seeing what a good person he is makes it even more special. Everyone at PSG is very happy. It has given a real boost to the club. I feel happy to have him as a partner “Wijnaldum noted.

The attacker had only good comments about his teammate Memphis Depay, who currently shines at FC Barcelona. “Memphis is a great player. I think the national team is doing so well for Memphis. Personally, I think I am doing so well because he is so good that our rivals have to keep watching him ”.
