Gini Wijnaldum's emotional message to Liverpool fans as Reds miss out on Premier League title

Gini Wijnaldum has sent an inspired message to Liverpool supporters as the Reds agonisingly missed out on the Premier League title.

Manchester City were crowned champions of England following their 4-1 victory over Brighton.

Jurgen Klopp's side ran out 2-0 winners but it wasn't enough to overthrow Pep Guardiola's team.

The Dutchman, who scored an unbelievable brace against Barcelona last week, has described his devastation on missing out on the league title.

In a post shared to Instagram, Wijnaldum wrote: "We wanted nothing more than to deliver the long awaited title to this beautiful club and our incredible fans."

The No.5 continued: "It hurts so much right now that we couldn’t accomplish it this season.

"We fought as hard as we could and can be proud of the way we played as a team and the amount of points we gained. It’s devastating that we came up just short.

"
A massive thank you to my teammates, coaches, staff and all our supporters. We will be back and fight as hard as ever for the title next season!

"But first we have one game left to play in Madrid!"
