Then who advised him not to sign it then??! He has lost a few million by holding out on his agent's advice!
Who's his agent btw? don't tell me it's that gob****e that ended Bobby Duncan's career?
I don't know who his agent is, obviously by not signing he has lost alot of money, I have mentioned this before in relation to Wijnaldum but the issue can't just be about money or an extra year, I think there must be something more to it wanting to play in a different league or a different challenge or whatever. And fair play to him if that's the case, he could easily have signed a 4 year contact a couple of years ago taken the higher salary and then part way through it said he wanted to leave, I'm sure if he was upfront with Klopp the Jurgen wouldn't have stood in his way.
Barca are a bit crap at the minute but I can't see them missing out on CL. Gini should have been on more money than we are paying but he is at that tricky age and we have probably decided he has missed the boat for a bigger contract.

Seriously, I would have binned off my agent for getting him a crappy deal when first signed for Liverpool...it's like you finding out a couple of weeks later that everyone got rolex watches off the boss when you got a mickey mouse watch & nothing can be done about it!!
To be fair when he signed he was coming into a side that didn't have CL football, I think we had finished 8th the year before, so we were aiming to get into the CL (which we obviously did) and he would have got a decent pay rise compared to what he was on at Newcastle. His wage is reflective of where the club was when he signed, the reason every other first team player is on a higher wage is that they have come in when the club has been in a stronger position or they have signed new contracts. He has reportedly had a contract that would double his salary sat on the table for a couple of years and chose not to sign it.

Nah, given his age he’s looking to secure a lucrative deal and is in a strong position to get one given his contract situation. If LFC can’t offer him that its in his own interests to secure that elsewhere.
