From Florian Wirtz to Liverpool to Liverpool, it can be considered all but the completed transactions as Fabrizio Romano declared “go here” on the 150 million euro transfer.
According to Romano, posted to X tonight, everything is now orally agreed between Liverpool and Wiltz club Bayer Lebakusen.
German International, which costs 150 million euros, will sign his contract and provide medical care soon, which has been described as “immediate” by Romano.
For Romano’s posts about Wirtz deals, we’ve gained a ton of engagement in just a few minutes… see below.
Romano posted: “Exclusive: From Florian Wiltz to Liverpool, here we go! Liverpool is in principle in favour of a contract with Bayer Leverkusen for a package that reaches the 150 million euro add-on. The players have already agreed to the move two weeks ago.
What Florian Wiltz’s transfer means for Liverpool
Wirtz is one of the most exciting young talents in football in the world, and his huge reported price reflects that.
This will destroy Reds’ transfer records, and Darwin Nunez is 805 million euros, according to TransferMarkt.
While investing in one player is a lot of money, Wirtz has already played nearly 200 games with Leverkusen, scoring 57 goals and helping him win his first Bundesliga title.
Wirtz, who is only 22 years old, already has 31 senior caps for Germany and has scored seven goals.
Liverpool signs second summer from Leberkusen
With Wirtz’s imminent arrival, the LFC has raided Leverkusen twice this summer.
Jeremy Fripon also recently moved to Anfield and replaced Trent Alexander Arnold with the right back.
It’s certainly exciting to see Arne Slot link again on the Liverpool side of the new look next season.
The Dutch tactician only signed one Federico Chiesa last summer, but the window could be far more busy for Liverpool.
