Florian Wirtz to Liverpool Transfer Latest as 'Contract Standoff' Emerges
- Liverpool is pursuing a £126 million transfer for Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen, with a decision expected by early June 2025.
- This pursuit follows Bayern Munich’s long-term interest and Manchester City’s withdrawal due to financial concerns amid a competitive transfer environment.
- Liverpool CEO Michael Edwards recently traveled to Boston to meet with Fenway Sports Group owners, presenting arguments in favor of a landmark investment during ongoing negotiations with representatives of Wirtz’s family.
- Wirtz has scored 16 goals this season and averages a goal or assist every 103 minutes, highlighting his value as a talismanic playmaker at 22 years old.
- If Liverpool secures Wirtz, the signing would mark a major investment signaling their ambition, while Ibrahima Konate’s contract situation remains a separate pivotal issue.
