Real Madrid will reportedly look to sign 20-year-old Bayer Leverkusen whizkid Florian Wirtz, a target for Liverpool, in 2025.
According to a report by German outlet BILD, Florian Wirtz is the subject of interest from Real Madrid. The Merengues are keen on signing the 20-year-old whizkid in the 2025 summer transfer window. Meanwhile, the Bayer Leverkusen star is also a target for Premier League heavyweights Liverpool.
The Rise and Rise of Florian Wirtz
Florian Wirtz has established himself as one of the best young attacking prospects in the world since moving to Bayer Leverkusen from FC Koln in January 2020. A highly-rated playmaker when he joined Die Werkself, the German international has come leaps and bounds in the last four years.
The 20-year-old has done well to bounce back from a long-term injury, becoming a pivotal figure for Bayer Leverkusen in the last 12 months. He has contributed to 24 goals in 30 appearances, finding the back of the net 16 times while providing eight assists. Meanwhile, Wirtz’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs.
Real Madrid, Liverpool Want Wirtz
The youngster has been on Real Madrid’s radar for a long time, with Los Blancos looking to sign him in the 2025 summer transfer window. Premier League bigwigs are also interested, with Liverpool among his prospective suitors from the English top flight.
Real Madrid’s interest in Florian Wirtz is understandable, considering Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are approaching the end of their respective careers. While Jude Bellingham has already replaced Modric in the starting lineup, Wirtz can succeed Kroos in the long run. But Real Madrid will not launch the offensive to sign the youngster until the 2025 summer transfer window.
As for Liverpool, the Reds are in the market for an offensive reinforcement, albeit for a like-for-like replacement for Mohamed Salah. But it is difficult to find someone like that, meaning a productive and versatile attacker like Wirtz should fit the bill at Anfield.
Several other high-profile clubs are also keen on signing Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen. So, the competition for the German international’s signature will be intense, be it this summer or the 2025 summer transfer window. It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid can beat Liverpool and others to the 20-year-old.
