A lot of Newcastle United fans would love to see Georginio Wijnaldum back on Tyneside after the club released a video of him scoring four goals in a 6-2 win over Norwich City in the 2015/16 season.
Newcastle would be relegated from the Premier League that season but this was one of the high points.
Would you have Wijnaldum back at Newcastle?
Yes
No
The Dutch international, who is valued at £45 million (as per Transfermarkt), scored 11 goals while on Tyneside before moving to Liverpool for £25m and going on to win the Champions League.
However, with news of a reported takeover happening at the Toon, these fans have decided that they want to see Wijnaldum back at the club.
??@GWijnaldum scored four goals as #NUFC beat @NorwichCityFC 6-2 at St. James' Park back in 2015. ?

What do we think?
Wijnaldum was one of the Magpies’ better players in a poor year, and since he has moved to Anfield, he has become an even better player under Jurgen Klopp.
The 29-year-old, despite only spending one season with Newcastle, developed an affection for the people and the region.
If Newcastle were to be taken over, then the Toon would have the money to bring Wijnaldum back, but would he want to leave Liverpool?
