And while his debut in the capital club is complicated, the Dutch international has made it clear that he does not intend to give up and that he is doing everything in his power to perfect his adaptation to Paris. Moreover, Georginio Wijnaldum explained that he had joined PSG to get out of his comfort zone. In the summer of 2016, Georginio Wijnaldum left Newcastle United to join Liverpool. A rather wise choice, since the Dutch international has climbed little by little in power with the Reds until becoming a centerpiece and captain of Jürgen Klopp. Despite everything, Georginio Wijnaldum decided to look elsewhere during the last summer transfer window. At the end of his contract on June 30 with Liverpool, the 31-year-old midfielder did not extend and preferred to launch a whole new challenge. And while he was on the verge of joining FC Barcelona, Georginio Wijnaldum finally changed his mind at the last minute to join PSG. A choice that he might regret today because its adaptation is difficult, but not at all. In an interview published on the PSG Twitter account on the occasion of his birthday, Georginio Wijnaldum spoke about his integration and explained that he counted give everything to acclimatize as well as possible to Paris. “The team I'm from, the country I'm from, the language I spoke, it's totally different from what I have here and I'm working hard to do as well as possible and change things . I'm still learning with the manager I work with. The country, of course, the language, the locals: it's all new to me, but also to my family. So I’m doing my best to adapt, ” Georginio Wijnaldum said on Thursday. In the process, the number 18 of Mauricio Pochettino admitted that he had signed to PSG to get out of his comfort zone. “My signing at PSG? Of course, it's a risk, but I think as a football player sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone to take the next step. So I just give everything I have. I'm someone who makes decisions based on his feelings, and with the choice I made, I felt the feelings were really good. I do everything to make it the best choice, so I'm not afraid. I am confident because I do everything to make it work. I'm pretty relaxed, “admitted Georginio Wijnaldum. It remains to be seen whether he will finally find his feet at PSG. While Georginio Wijnaldum scored a brace against RB Leipzig in the Champions League a week ago, we can imagine that he is starting to feel his best at his new club.
