Some Newcastle fans on social media reacted to a report by the Chronicle that stated that the Magpies were not interested in signing Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum.

The Chronicle reported that the Magpies hadn’t made a move to sign their former midfielder despite Turkish newspaper Takvim claiming that the Magpies had made an offer in order to bring him back to St James Park.

One Magpies fan stated on Twitter that they were going to pretend they didn’t read the report clarifying the club’s interest in Wijnaldum as they missed watching him play for the club.

Nothing But Newcastle has rounded up tweets by a selection of Magpies fans about the club’s lack of interest in Wijnaldum:

OPINION

It seems Magpies fans are a little split when it comes to the idea of Wijnaldum returning to the club as one even revealed they wouldn’t take him back due to him leaving after the club was relegated. The 27-year-old who earns £75,000-a-week at Anfield (Spotrac) previously made 40 appearances for the Magpies, scoring 11 goals and racking up five assists so it’s easy to see why some fans would welcome him back. After making 92 appearances for the Reds, the midfielder has only improved since leaving the club and would be a great signing for the Magpies to make this summer. However it seems based on the Chronicle’s update the Magpies won’t be attempting to recruit Wijnaldum anytime soon as the club simply aren’t interested at the moment in the Premier League ace.
