A Dutch international is a priority target of AS Monaco, could strengthen the Monegasque environment this winter.
L’AS Monaco actively explore the options to strengthen its workforce. Among the priority targets, the name of Georginio Wijnaldumcurrently Al-etttifaq player in Saudi Arabia, stands out. According to The team, Monegasque leaders see him in him a key element to consolidate the midfielder.
Wijnaldum: an experienced leader always efficient
At 34, Wijnaldum remains a world reference despite its exile in Saudi Arabia. With Al-etttifaq, he is illustrated each week by solid services, confirming his place among the holders. His regular performances earned him to regain the confidence of the Dutch selection, with which he participated in the last euro. This proves that, despite its distance from European spotlights, the environment retains a notable influence on the ground.
The obstacles of an ambitious transfer
Under contract with Al-etttifaq until 2026, Wijnaldum will not be easy to recruit. The Saudi club has shown no sign of wanting to separate from its star. The Monegasque management will have to use persuasion to convince the player to return to Europe while finding common ground with Al-etttifaq.
-Monaco is counting on the attractiveness of its sports project to seduce Wijnaldum. However, the success of this operation will also depend on the player's desire to reintegrate a high -level championship.
Wilfried Ndidi: a serious alternative
In parallel, Monaco studies other avenues in the event of a failure of negotiations for Wijnaldum. Among them, Wilfried Ndidi, the defensive midfielder of Leicester City, particularly attracts attention. The 27 -year -old Nigerian evolves at a competitive level in the Premier League and offers a younger and robust option. Its ability to recover balloons and stabilize the midfield could perfectly meet the needs of Monegasques.
However, the Wijnaldum folder promises to be complex. If Monaco manages to conclude this transfer, this would represent a strong signal sent to its rivals. For the time being, discussions remain open, and the determination of the leaders will be decisive to finalize this ambitious objective.
