Wijnaldum ready to join new teammates in USA training
Georginio Wijnaldum could join training immediately upon meeting up with his new Liverpool teammates in America, Jürgen Klopp has confirmed.
The Netherlands international completed a switch to the Reds from Newcastle United on Friday and will now depart for the United States and the pre-season tour.
And Wijnaldum should be fit enough to get going shortly after his arrival, the manager expects.
Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com in California: “Today was his medical. The plan is – I heard nothing else – that he will fly tomorrow morning and will then be here tomorrow and join training. We will see.
“He was in full training with Newcastle so there aren’t a lot of special things we have to do. We can involve him immediately in normal training, hopefully.”
