Florian Wirtz is one of the stars of Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen. The 20-year-old German midfielder has 8 goals and 16 assists in 30 games this season in all competitions, putting him on the radar of Europe’s top teams.
Bild claims that the player wants to stay in Leverkusen until 2025, so it seems doubtful that any suitors will be able to sign him this summer. Although Leverkusen does not want to lose their best player to a domestic rival, Bayern Munich has Wirtz down as their top target.
Teams outside the Bundesliga have more opportunities to sign him because of this, but ultimately, the player will make the decision. The player's primary sponsor, Adidas, wants him to sign with Real Madrid in the summer of 2025. According to Bild, they were already involved in Bellingham's transfer to Madrid last year.
By 2025, Real Madrid could be without Kroos and Modric, and Wirtz would be a good substitute. According to the German newspaper, the player is obsessed with winning titles, so he will always look more at the sporting prospects than any economic ones.
According to the source, Leverkusen is seeking a transfer fee of €130 million for their star, who is presently valued at €100 million. It is an amount similar to what Real Madrid may end up paying Dortmund for Bellingham if all the bonuses they agreed to as part of the deal get activated.
