  • Liverpool interested in Wirtz
  • Bayern have made him a top target
  • Bavarian side concerned about Reds

  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    Per Kicker, Bayern have made Wirtz a top target for the summer transfer window and while there was an expectation of competition from Europe's top clubs, it appears the field has narrowed to two, with the attacking midfielder set to choose between Liverpool and Bavaria in the next 10 days. Real Madrid had been linked, as had Manchester City, but the Reds have moved ahead of both, having met with Wirtz's family last week.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Liverpool are said to have told Wirtz that he could be the focal point of a new-look side under Arne Slot next season. The Reds' pitch is said to have impressed the 22-year-old, but any move will cost over €100 million (£84.5m), and Bayern have been in consistent communication as they aim to secure one of the Bundesliga's best players.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    The Germany international has enjoyed a superb season in the German top-flight, scoring 10 goals and registering 13 assists in 31 appearances. He also scored six goals in nine games in the Champions League, although, of course, Leverkusen were knocked out of the competition by Bayern.
