Report: Liverpool planning to hand Fabinho and Georginio Wijnaldum new deals

According to The Guardian, Liverpool want to hand midfield duo Fabinho and Georginio Wijnaldum new deals following the roles they have both played since joining and in the side’s impressive start to the 2020-21 English Premier League campaign.

Jurgen Klopp’s side are currently second in the table due to an inferior goal difference following seven wins, three draws and a defeat, level on points with league leaders Tottenham Hotspur, and the Brazilian and his Dutch teammate have been crucial to their form.

Fabinho has played nine league games this term, with the majority of them coming as a makeshift centre-back following injuries to Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez.
