Wirtz is about to join Liverpool. |
According to the Daily Mail , Liverpool have agreed transfer terms with Bayer Leverkusen for Wirtz. The two parties have agreed an initial fee of £100m, which could rise to £116m based on performance-related bonuses, including winning the Champions League and Premier League, and Wirtz has played a key role in Liverpool's journey.
According to Sky Sports , Wirtz will receive a basic salary of £10m a year, equivalent to around £195,000 a week. This salary could rise by a further £12.77m (more than £245,000 a week) if individual and team bonuses are triggered.
With these figures, Wirtz is among Liverpool's highest-earning players. But he still ranks behind the club's two biggest stars.
Mohamed Salah, who signed a new contract in April, is on £380,000 a week, while captain Virgil van Dijk is the highest earner on around £400,000 a week.
Wirtz is expected to play as a number 10 under manager Arne Slot, and could also be given the option to play wider, deeper in midfield, or as a false nine.
In the 2024/25 Bundesliga season, Wirtz scored 10 goals and had 12 assists, playing an important role in helping Leverkusen compete fiercely with Bayern Munich in the championship race.
The German international has had talks with coach Slot and even viewed a house in Cheshire in preparation for the move. Those close to Wirtz say he is delighted to have the opportunity to play alongside stars like Salah and Van Dijk.
