Arne Slot has already made an announcement about his flawless first transfer to Liverpool.
- Arne Slot’s Ideal First Liverpool Transfer Has Made an Impact
Published 1 week ago on June
Arne Slot has made a remarkable start with Liverpool, making his presence felt immediately through his recent transfers.
Florian Wirtz is undoubtedly Arne Slot’s top target for Liverpool for various compelling reasons.
Liverpool has been strongly linked with Florian Wirtz. Both Arne Slot and Liverpool are keen to bring him on board.
In his 49 appearances for Bayer Leverkusen across all competitions, the young German was instrumental, leading the team to an undefeated Bundesliga season with 18 goals and 20 assists.
Unfortunately, Liverpool’s plans might be thwarted by Real Madrid’s interest.
Real Madrid, the reigning European champions, reportedly have an agreement in place for Wirtz to join them in 2025, according to Spanish publication Marca.
The transfer could be worth up to €150 million (£127 million).
Moreover, Leverkusen is adamant about not letting Wirtz go. Leverkusen’s chief Simon Rolfes told Sky Sports last month, “He will stay. His father and agent have confirmed it. He has a contract here and he’s very happy.”
