According to a report from Florian Plettenberg, Liverpool are looking to offer Bayer Leverkusen a substantial package, and the deal to sign Florian Wirtz could be completed soon.
Liverpool are ready to pay around €150 million for the German international, and he will be a club record signing for them. They needed to bring in a quality attack this summer, and the 22-year-old could be a superb acquisition for them in long term. He is regarded as one of the best young players in the world right now, and he could develop into a world-class player for Liverpool with the right guidance.
Apart from his ability to create and score goals consistently, he is capable of operating in multiple attacking roles. His versatility will be an added bonus. The player was heavily linked with a move to the German champions Bayern Munich, but he has turned them down in order to join the Premier League champions instead.
Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and it is no surprise that the player has chosen to join them. He will look to establish himself as a key player for them and fulfil his tremendous potential in the Premier League.
The attacker has the physicality and technical attributes to adapt to English football quickly, and he will look to make an instant impact next season. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool can bring in a quality striker as well. Darwin Nunez scored just seven goals in all competitions last season, and they need a reliable centre forward if they want to fight for major trophies once again.
Liverpool are desperate to improve their squad adequately during the summer transfer window, and they have been linked with multiple players. Wirtz is not the only player they will sign from the German club this summer. They have already secured the services of Jeremy Frimpong from Leverkusen earlier on in the summer.
