Anticipated Eberl Comments Regarding the Wirtz Transfers' Appendage - Wirtz Transfer Scrutiny: Eberl's Remarks on the Terminated Deal
Max Eberl has weighed in on the scintillating turn of events regarding Florian Wirtz's transfer to Liverpool. In a candid interview, Eberl admitted, "I don't even know if we could've shelled out the dough that Liverpool seems to be splashing for Wirtz now!"
Behind closed doors, the Bavarian giants were set to pony up an estimated €150 million for the 22-year-old Wirtz. Yet, the talent opted for the reds of Liverpool after numerous deliberations.
Eberl's sentiment remained, "Frankly, the whole club voiced their admiration for Wirtz, and we easily could've imagined him shining for us. Apparently, he saw things differently."
"Ah, well, c'est la vie!"
Negotiations around the table involved high-ranking club officials, like the board members and honorary presidents Uli Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. "Everyone was in the room. But Lil' Wirtz made a different call. Such is the dance of the market," Eberl said, waving off the matter with a shrug.
Now, it's time to move on. "First off, you say, 'Dang!' But one door slams shut, and another one opens. So, we'll reassess our game plan for the future. Wirtz is off to Liverpool. In the meantime, we'll be hunting for another exceptional player to join our ranks."

The transfer saga unfolded in the midst of the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 in Orlando. With the team away in the US for nearly a month, Eberl expressed the challenges faced in securing new players for Bayern. Despite the setback, Eberl remains optimistic about the squad's future, assuring fans that Bayern is hot on the trail of another jaw-dropping talent who could easily elevate their game to new heights.
The summer transfer window brings a stack of changes for the Bavarian powerhouse, with big names like Leroy Sané and Thomas Müller leaving Bayern. New acquisitions already on board include Jonathan Tah and Tom Bischof, who will both be beefing up the squad's roster for the 2025/26 season. All eyes are on Eberl and his team to make the right moves to stay competitive during this crucial period of change[1][2][3].
As for Eberl, he'll continue managing the transfers from Orlando with his signature style: "You take the hits, shake it off, and keep dancing!"
The Commission has also been considering a proposal for a directive on the approximation of the laws of Member States regarding employee rights during transfers of businesses, which could potentially impact the sports world in the future. Despite the departure of Florian Wirtz to Liverpool FC, Max Eberl remains optimistic about Bayern Munich's future and is eager to secure another exceptional player to join their ranks.
