AS Monaco is considering Georginio Wijnaldum as a potential addition to their midfield, emphasizing the need for an experienced player. The club has made inquiries about the Dutch player, who has played a significant role at Al-Ettifaq since his arrival in the summer of 2023. Monaco is particularly keen on evaluating his motivation and willingness to return to European football. Wijnaldum's performances in Saudi Arabia have led to his recall to the national team, where he participated in the last Euro as a substitute. The former Paris Saint-Germain player remains under contract until 2026.
