Liverpool has agreed on a British record agreement for Bayer Leverkusen, which attacks the Migcampor Florian Wirtz.
Several reports have suggested that the Premier League champions will pay an initial share of 100 million pounds, with £ 16 million in potential complements.
If these conditions are met, international Germany will become the most expensive player who has ever bought a British club, surpassing Chelsea 106.8 million pounds paid by Enzo Fernandez in February 2023.
Wirtz was a key member of the side of Leverkusen who reached the first crown of the club’s Bundesliga in the 2023-24 season under Xabi Alonso, marking 18 times on his way to be named German player of the year.
He continued last season with 16 goals and 15 assists in all competitions, as Leverkusen ended up runner -up in Bayern Munich on the first German flight.
Wirtz joins another old man from Leverkusen to Anfield with Jeremie Frimpong already introduced to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has left for Real Madrid.

Where will Wirtz play?
The young man, 22, can play anywhere through the first three places, and although the need for Liverpool of more attacing players may not be immediately obvious, there will be movement in this department about a near future.
It is expected that Darwin Nunez leaves this summer, potentially in the Saudi League Pro, while Luis Diaz talks to other clubs with two years remaining in his Liverpool agreement.
Mohamed Salah is now 33 years old, and although he has just signed a new contract after leaving the best season of his career, Wirtz’s acquisition represents a smart succession planning.
Leverkusen and Cologne are headed by the compensation row.
The agreement will also see that Leverkusen has a huge benefit.
They signed Wirtz for € 200,000 under controversial circumstances by Cologne 2020.
However, if you can see Liverpool’s complete rate, it is still to be seen, with a colony that did a legal action to ensure that they can reduce five percent, they believe that they have the right to “training compensation” guidelines.
The President of Cologne, Dr. Werner Wolf, said last week: “Of course, we are studying. We know what we have the right and we will fight for it.
“We are looking at this with both eyes. We will benefit. The higher the Liverpool sum is ready to pay, better for us.”
