Bayer Leverkusen is engaged in ongoing negotiations with Liverpool regarding a potential transfer of midfielder Florian Wirtz, with the English club having submitted a proposal valued at approximately €130m. According to the latest developments, discussions are centred on the structure of add-ons, a crucial aspect that needs to be resolved to finalise the agreement.

Florian Wirtz, an attacking midfielder, has been the subject of interest from several top clubs in recent months. Prior to Liverpool’s formal approach, Bayern Munich had also expressed interest in signing the player, with Uli Hoeneß, the German club’s president, publicly stating their desire to secure his services. However, it is reported that Wirtz is only interested in joining Liverpool.

Bayer Leverkusen had initially aimed to retain Wirtz until 2026, but the recent developments suggest that the club may be willing to sell the player this summer. The transfer negotiations are ongoing, with the structure of the add-ons being a key factor in determining the final agreement.
