Wirtz is set to join Liverpool. |
Liverpool have agreed a fee of £116m with Bayer Leverkusen for Wirtz, which includes £100m up front and £16m in performance-related fees. It would be the biggest transfer in the club's history and could break the British transfer record if all bonuses are activated.
Wirtz will sign a five-year contract with Liverpool, running until 2030. According to Athletic , the German player is expected to arrive in England this weekend and undergo a medical on June 20. Once completed, Wirtz will sign the contract and be introduced to fans.
Leverkusen initially demanded around £128m for Wirtz. Liverpool also faced competition from Bayern Munich, but eventually reached an agreement.
The Anfield team aims to quickly complete the signing of Wirtz at the request of coach Arne Slot. The German midfielder is expected to play an important role in Liverpool's pre-season tour.
The Merseyside club will be hoping for a strong start to the 2025/26 season, as they aim to retain their Premier League title and improve on their other league results from 2024/25. Wirtz’s arrival is expected to bring a breath of fresh air to Liverpool’s attack, helping the team maintain their strength and creativity in their play.
