Liverpool in advanced talks to sign 22yo playmaker

24 May 2025 - 21:21

Liverpool are in advanced talks with Bayer Leverkusen to sign Florian Wirtz this summer.

  • Fenerbahce agree personal terms with Arsenal winger
  • Arsenal open contract talks with Belgian star

  • The Merseyside giants have already secured an agreement to land Jeremie Frimpong from Leverkusen.

    The right-back has penned a contract after undergoing a medical. A formal announcement will be made soon.

    Sky Germany now claim that the Reds are also in advanced negotiations to land Wirtz from Leverkusen.

    The 22-year-old was initially touted to join Bayern Munich, but he has changed his stance in recent days.

    Wirtz has almost agreed on personal terms with Liverpool and talks are now ongoing to finalise on the fee.

    Leverkusen are eyeing a staggering £126 million for his transfer, but the Reds remain optimistic of lowering the package.

    The Premier League champions may ideally want to sign him for £100m as a fixed fee with additional performance add-ons.

    Wirtz is very likely to become the club's second summer signing and there could be more recruitment in the coming weeks.
