Liverpool are on the verge of completing a major signing, with Florian Wirtz set to join the Reds from Bayer Leverkusen, according to a major update from transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
The 22-year-old German international, who hinted at a move to Anfield on social media, is reportedly close to sealing a deal worth over £126 million—potentially one of the most expensive in Liverpool’s history. Romano, via @DaveOCKOP on X, stated that both clubs are ironing out the final details of the agreement.
However, German outlet BILD has issued a word of caution, noting that the transfer could fall through if Wirtz picks up an injury during international duty this week. He is expected to feature for Germany in their Nations League semi-final clash with Portugal on Wednesday, stepping in as the creative force in the absence of Jamal Musiala.
Wirtz has just wrapped up a standout season with 16 goals and 15 assists and is reportedly excited about joining Liverpool under new manager Arne Slot.
Although Liverpool has yet to make an official announcement, Romano insists the deal is nearly finalized. Fans are already buzzing with anticipation over what could be a transformative signing.
