According to a report by The Times, Liverpool expect Florian Wirtz to remain in the Bundesliga beyond this season. He could stay at Bayer Leverkusen or join Bayern Munich, who are keen on securing his signature.
The newly crowned Bundesliga champions are looking to improve their attacking unit, and they have identified the German attacker as the ideal target. Wirtz, who has contributed to 31 goals this season, is regarded as a world-class talent, and he could develop into a top-class player for the German champions. It remains to be seen how the situation develops.
Meanwhile, Liverpool will be disappointed if they miss out on him. The Reds need more creativity in the final third, and the Bayer Leverkusen playmaker is capable of operating as the no. 10 as well as a wide player. His versatility will be an added bonus. Florian Wirtz will chip in with goals and creativity as well.
Liverpool need more quality in the attack. They have been overly dependent on Mohamed Salah this season. The Merseyside outfit will be hoping to challenge for the Premier League title once again and do well in the UEFA Champions League. They will need to keep improving their squad in order to compete with elite clubs.
Florian Wirtz has all the tools to develop into a superstar in future, and he could be an asset for Liverpool in the long term if they can get the deal done. Meanwhile, the German international has been linked with a move to Manchester City as well. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Interestingly, Liverpool are closing in on another Bayer Leverkusen and Wirtz’s teammate Jeremie Frimpong. The Reds are expected to trigger his release clause and sign the Dutchman as a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, who will join Real Madrid in a Bosman move this summer.
Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and it remains to be seen whether they can convince the German midfielder to join them. However, they expect the youngster to remain in the Bundesliga beyond the summer transfer window.
