Bayer Leverkusen Star Florian Wirtz's Future Tilts Towards Liverpool
Bundesliga sensation Florian Wirtz has been in discussions with German national team coach Julian Nagelsmann regarding his future plans. In an interview with Sky, Nagelsmann confirmed that they have exchanged messages, with the coach expressing his eagerness to offer advice while acknowledging that the final decision lies with Wirtz.
Nagelsmann stated that he has not ruled out any clubs for the 22-year-old talent and does not advocate joining a specific one. However, he expresses positivity regarding a potential move to Liverpool, praising the club as a great environment and fantastic instinct for Wirtz.
Recent reports suggest that Wirtz is leaning towards a move to English champions Liverpool, despite ongoing negotiations between the Reds and Bayer Leverkusen for a transfer fee. Leverkusen is demanding €150 million for the highly-talented midfielder, whose contract with the club runs until 2027.
If the transfer materializes, the reunion with fellow German national team player Jamal Musiala at Bayern Munich would not have been possible, according to Nagelsmann. However, he remains optimistic that the duo can find success together at the international level, regardless of their club affiliations.
Liverpool's pursuit of Wirtz forms part of a larger recruitment drive, with the Reds also working on deals for Jeremie Frimpong and Milos Kerkez. If all these moves come to fruition, it promises to be a transfer window of significant change under the club's new management.
In related news, Liverpool have reportedly agreed to a five-year contract with Wirtz, who is expected to become one of the club's highest earners. Negotiations between the two clubs are ongoing, with a bid worth over €100 million having already been submitted. It is expected that the deal will be completed soon, as both sides work diligently to finalize terms.
