US EditionBayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz and Bayern Munich agree on contract, but no club agreement, per report
- Florian Wirtz, a 21-year-old Bayer Leverkusen star and Germany international, has agreed a contract with Bayern Munich for a potential transfer in summer 2025, but the clubs have not reached an agreement yet.
- This development follows Bayern Munich’s strong interest in Wirtz, propelled by advice from former Bayern legend Bastian Schweinsteiger urging him to stay in Germany and join Bayern rather than Manchester City or Real Madrid, though Wirtz’s family holds mixed views.
- Leverkusen have offered Wirtz a contract extension through 2027 with no release clause, reflecting their desire to keep him amid offers from top clubs, while Bayern are exploring partner involvement, such as Adidas, due to financial limits.
- Wirtz’s market value is estimated at around 130 million euros, with an annual salary of about 7.5 million euros at Leverkusen, and reports indicate the transfer fee could range between 120 and 150 million euros if completed.
- As the 2024-25 season closes, Bayer Leverkusen faces a major squad revolution and must decide Wirtz’s future, whose move to Bayern could influence other European clubs’ plans and impact his role in Germany’s national team at the 2026 World Cup.
