Summer 2025 promises to be animated on the side of Anfield. After having won the Premier League and succeeded in the big shot Jeremie Frimpong, Liverpool made Florian Wirtz his absolute priority. To convince the jewel of Bayer Leverkusen to rally the Mersey, the Reds submitted an exceptional offer, both to the German club and to the player himself. It must be said that competition was fierce, including Bayern Munich in the ranks, but the German attacking midfielder clearly said his preference for Liverpool.
It is now official: Liverpool is ready to offer Florian Wirtz a weekly salary of 340,000 pounds Sterling (or nearly 400,000 euros) according to Bild. An amount that would instantly propel the German international among the best -paid players of the Premier League, and would confirm the ambitious turn taken by the Reds since the arrival of Arne Slot. This stratospheric proposal testifies to Liverpool's desire to bet on Wirtz to build its future, making its new offensive headliner.
Florian Wirtz, the golden bet of the Reds
A star salary to convince Wirtz in Liverpool
Beyond the salary, Liverpool did not hesitate to put the package to convince Leverkusen. The amount of the transfer is around 134 million euros, including bonuses, one of the most important in the history of the club. Wirtz, who shone in the Bundesliga with 16 goals and 15 assists last season, would land in an ideal context, where he would be called to become the boss of the game under the orders of Arne Slot.
Florian Wirtz, 22, is considered one of the greatest German talents of his generation. His statistics testify to this: 57 goals and 65 assists in 197 games with Leverkusen. His choice to join Liverpool is part of a logic of progression, in a championship where he can express himself at the highest level. For the Reds, this record transfer and this disproportionate salary represent a bet on the continuity of their domination, while writing a new page in their history.
