Liverpool to go 'all in' with $134m bid to sign Florian Wirtz

Liverpool endured a difficult summer transfer window and the Reds supporters have been left fuming about the fact that Arne Slot wasn’t back in the transfer window. The officials at Anfield Stadium are keen to ensure that their new head coach is given the right players that suit his playing style and they are looking at highly touted Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Florian Wirtz.

The German international is one of the most exciting players in the attacking midfield role and his arrival could spark a sense of optimism in the offensive line at AXA training centre.

Liverpool are ready to go “all in” and offer a humungous sum of $134m (£101m) to land the 21-year-old German international in the next summer transfer window, per journalist Diego Mengual.

Wirtz loves to play in the offensive dynamic and is direct in his approach which suits Arne Slot’s playing style and the culture at Anfield. He is also someone that is always looking for solutions, something that helps the Reds add some technical depth in the squad. Moreover, the German is capable of playing in wide roles as well as in the central roles which makes him an ideal arrival, especially considering he will compete with Dominik Szoboszlai.

The fact that Liverpool are ready to fork out such money shows how the club believes in Arne Slot’s project and are willing to give him an opportunity to bolster his squad in a way that it is ready to compete for silverwares. And the club’s willingness to offer $134m shows that the club is serious to land the player.

This comes after another reliable journalist, Christian Falk suggested that Florian Wirtz is looking to move on from Bayer Leverkusen next summer.
