G. Wijnaldum is a number 10 at Al Ettifaq (78 overall, CAM) — good at that. At 34 they're in the final stretch; use them for what they still give, not for what they were. Their big weapon: short passing (82).
By FAFIFA Team · updated September 2025
Their place is in the hole, between the lines as CAM. Play them between the lines with freedom to receive and thread the final ball; they turn possession into chances. They can also play ST and CM. The game also rewards them with roles like Half-winger and Playmaker, which reinforce that profile. Technically, they cope well with their weaker foot (4★).
Where they really hurt you is short passing (82), ball control (82) and composure (80). Their short passing is notable and it's the trait to build their game around.
No obvious holes for what their position asks: a profile without clear cracks.
Worth around 7,7 M€ with 41 K€ wages. Worth it as a one-season stopgap; don't expect to resell high. And with a contract until 2026, you have leverage to bring the price down.
Their best position is CAM, though they can also play ST and CM.
They're already at their ceiling (78): at their age the rating won't rise.
Their market value is around 7,7 M€, with 41 K€ wages.
Their vision is 77 — reliable for their position.
