Liverpool supporters eager for updates on Florian Wirtz’s potential debut at Anfield have received major news from German outlet Bild.
According to reporters Phillip Arens and Axel Hesse, Wirtz has signed a long-term deal with Liverpool, keeping him at the club until 2030.
The 22-year-old attacking midfielder is scheduled to join Arne Slot’s squad for his first training session on July 7, aligning perfectly with pre-season preparations.
Wirtz is also expected to make his first appearance for Liverpool in a friendly match against Preston North End at Deepdale on July 13. Following that, he’ll participate in the club’s Asian tour, facing AC Milan in Hong Kong (July 26) and Yokohama F. Marinos in Japan (July 30).
Wirtz’s Integration Timeline:
Event | Date |
---|---|
First Training | July 7 |
Preston Debut | July 13 |
Asian Tour Games | July 26, 30 |
This detailed schedule helps fans move past the uncertainty and speculation, offering a clear picture of Wirtz’s early involvement with the team.
With Jeremie Frimpong and Armin Pecsi already signed, and Trent Alexander-Arnold and Caoimhin Kelleher departing, Liverpool’s summer transfer activity is in full swing.
Bringing in a dynamic No. 10 like Wirtz — who tallied 16 goals and 15 assists last season — highlights the club’s commitment to building on last season’s Premier League triumph.
With Bild also disclosing details of Liverpool’s fourth bid for Wirtz, it seems increasingly likely that his signing is imminent, making it less a question of if and more a question of when
