The Bundesliga club had initially set a price tag of €150 million for the 21-year-old star, after rejecting Liverpool’s earlier offer of €130 million. However, after further negotiations, Liverpool have agreed to meet Leverkusen’s asking price in full, paving the way for the transfer to move forward.
Wirtz, regarded as one of Europe’s brightest young talents, played a crucial role in Leverkusen’s recent domestic and European success. His creativity, vision, and composure on the ball have drawn praise from top clubs across the continent. Liverpool’s interest in the player reflects their intent to rejuvenate their midfield with fresh energy and technical skill.
With the transfer fee agreed upon, Wirtz is now scheduled to undergo a series of medical examinations before the deal is officially finalized. Additionally, both parties are expected to enter into discussions to finalize the terms of the player’s contract, including salary, duration, and personal clauses.
