The 30-year old Dutchman has already made it clear that he will not be extending his contract at Anfield after spending five years at the club.

Spanish giants Barcelona have long been considered the favourites for his signature, especially with Dutch head coach Ronald Koeman in charge.

However, Spanish newspaper Marca claims that Juventus are still in the running for Wijnaldum.

This season, the Netherlands international has featured 40 times for Liverpool and has netted three times.
