In a recent interview, Bayern Munich legend Karl-Heinz Rummenigge expressed the club's keen interest in signing Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen, whom he considers the best player in Germany. Rummenigge stated that acquiring Wirtz is crucial for Bayern’s future goals and aims to strengthen their squad rather than weaken Leverkusen. He also highlighted that Leverkusen has now surpassed Borussia Dortmund in strength and may pose a significant domestic challenge. As Bayern aims to reclaim the title amidst their Champions League encounters, tensions between the clubs are expected to rise.
For me, Florian Wirtz is the best player in Germany. And I make no secret of the fact that it must be our clear goal to sign Wirtz. Everyone at FC Bayern agrees that he is exactly the player we want to sign - not to weaken Leverkusen, but to strengthen ourselves.
Bayer Leverkusen have now overtaken Borussia Dortmund, that's clear. They will be the team that will probably challenge us the most domestically in the coming years.
With an eight-point lead in the league, I'm optimistic that we will bring the title back to Munich. In the Champions League, progressing against Leverkusen could give us the decisive push towards the final.
