Bayern Munich is currently the leading candidate to secure Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz, but Liverpool FC is making significant moves to entice the player. Liverpool executives recently held an emergency meeting in the U.S. to approve funds for Wirtz's transfer, aiming to outmaneuver Bayern's potential deals. The midfielder may transfer immediately this summer or delay until next summer. Liverpool's sustained interest in Wirtz, coupled with financial readiness from recent player extensions, positions them as a serious contender in the ongoing transfer negotiations.
Liverpool's decision-makers, led by Michael Edwards, flew to Boston this week to meet with Liverpool's owners to approve the funds for the potential transfer.
With the money available from extensions of top stars until 2027, Liverpool is focusing on strengthening at the top instead of a major rebuild.
Bayern Munich will probably want to ramp up their own talks with Wirtz, as a decision on his transfer is expected within 10 days.
Liverpool has kept a close eye on Wirtz’s development for years, and now sees a perfect opportunity to strike.
