Florian Wirtz Transfer State of Play as Liverpool Handed 'Amazing' Message
Bayer Leverkusen are open to selling their Germany international midfielder Florian Wirtz during the 2025 summer transfer window.
Leverkusen demand a transfer fee of around 150 million euros, but escalating wages and fees have caused Manchester City to withdraw from negotiations.
Liverpool and Bayern Munich remain the leading candidates to sign Wirtz, who scored 16 goals across 41 matches this season for Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso.
Leverkusen CEO Fernando Carro said, "Florian has to think about his future", adding no decisions have been made despite reports of an agreement with Bayern.
With Manchester City out, Liverpool intends to continue competing with Bayern for Wirtz’s signature, though the financial demands pose significant challenges.
