Liverpool ready for Florian Wirtz transfer battle as stance confirmed on £125m star - Liverpool Echo
- Liverpool, Bayern Munich, and Manchester City are competing in 2025 to sign 22-year-old Florian Wirtz, a Bayer Leverkusen and Germany midfielder.
- This competition arises as Kevin De Bruyne plans to leave Manchester City this summer, creating a need for a creative midfielder like Wirtz.
- Wirtz recently toured Manchester City’s facilities with his parents, while Liverpool representatives have met his agents, though Leverkusen has not received any bid yet.
- Reports estimate Wirtz’s transfer value around £125 million, which would exceed Liverpool’s record by £35 million and poses financing challenges for Bayern.
- The transfer battle suggests Wirtz might stay in Germany or move to the Premier League, with Liverpool ready to intensify efforts if he decides to leave Leverkusen.
