The Wirtz family hit it big from the deal of the century.

Florian Wirtz is set to arrive at Anfield for a British record fee of £116m.

Florian Wirtz is set to arrive at Anfield for a British record fee - £116 million - but the first beneficiaries of this blockbuster deal are not professional football agents, but... his parents.

Without the need for a super agent or a large team of advisors, Wirtz completely trusted his parents - Hans and Karin - to negotiate the entire transfer with Liverpool. And that trust was rewarded with a contract that brought him to the reigning Premier League champions, along with an estimated commission of up to 8.6 million pounds for both parents.

According to Bild, this is the amount of money that Wirtz's parents will receive over the course of a five-year contract. Not a small amount, but a worthy reward for those who have been with their son from his early days in Leverkusen's shirt to the peak of the current transfer market.

Technically, Liverpool have not only acquired one of the best young talents in Europe, but also the perfect piece to a creative midfield that is in need of a new lease of life. Under Arne Slot, Wirtz could explode - as he did under Xabi Alonso last season. A domestic double and the German Super Cup in the 2023/24 season are testament to the 2003-born midfielder's consistent excellence.

Wirtz is a talent of German football.

Wirtz’s choice to rely on his family rather than his super-agent also reflects a different approach to modern football. It’s no longer a simple money race, but a carefully calculated journey by those who know him best. And that calculation has been tested by many challenges – from Leverkusen’s resolute rejection of initial offers, to the eventual £100m (plus £16m in add-ons) bid.

Interestingly, Wirtz will reunite with Jeremie Frimpong - his former teammate at Leverkusen, who has also just arrived at Liverpool for £29.5 million. The pair, who were once pillars under Xabi Alonso, will now continue to be the core of the Merseyside team's ambition to conquer Europe.

From a holiday together off the coast of Montenegro, Wirtz and Frimpong are set to reunite on the English pitch. And behind the scenes of the blockbuster deal, a small family has just asserted its place on the map of top football - no noise, no tricks, simply faith and professionalism to the end.

Liverpool may have spent big, but for Florian Wirtz, this was more than just a player signing. It was a strategic investment - and a touching story about football, family and faith.
