Following his impressive contributions to Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen team, Florian Wirtz has become a highly sought-after player.
The 22-year-old talent played a pivotal role in the German club’s Bundesliga victory during the 2023-24 season and was awarded the Player of the Season title for his outstanding performances.
With Alonso’s departure from Leverkusen, numerous reports have emerged suggesting a dramatic return to Real Madrid, where he enjoyed a five-year playing career.
The Bundesliga side could potentially now lose another star of their title-winning season, with Wirtz being linked with a mouth-watering move to Premier League champions Liverpool.
The Reds are flying high after a stunning start to life under Arne Slot, and Wirtz could potentially be a key addition when they get their title defence underway next term.
