Liverpool are gearing up for the biggest spending summer in their history as the transfer window re-opens to pave the way for Florian Wirtz to join
Boston Red Sox fans have developed a conspiracy theory relating to Liverpool and their move for Florian Wirtz after the MBL traded its star player.
The biggest statement signing comes in the form of a record-breaking transfer for Florian Wirtz. Liverpool have agreed a £117m fee for Wirtz, with the player expected to be officially announced soon. However, the arrival of the German could signal the end of the road for one current Liverpool player.
Wirtz had grown up in a family that refused to compromise his development, nor that of his sister Juliane, who plays for Werder Bremen. His father Hans remains the chairman of Grun-Weiss Brauweiler, Wirtz's childhood was framed around the local football team. He grew up with a ball attached to his feet.
After several rejected bids, Liverpool have now agreed a deal to sign Wirtz for a whopping €136.3 million (£116.1 million, $157.8 million)—making Wirtz the most expensive sale in Bundesliga history and setting him up to break the Premier League transfer record if all add-ons are met.
Díaz has two years left on the contract he signed in early 2022, one that sees him earn roughly £55,000 per week — a number that now reads like a rounding error when compared to the salaries of the club’s top earners.
Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for an initial $135 million, according to CBS Sports sources. The agreement to sign the German international could ultimately break the British transfer record set by Chelsea when they signed Enzo Fernandez from Benfica for just short of $145 million.
