Manchester City have been linked with a move for 21-year-old Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Manchester City are now concerned about losing the race to sign Bayer Leverkusen playmaker Florian Wirtz.
Wirtz is one of the best young players in the Bundesliga, and he helped Bayer Leverkusen win the league title last season.

The German international has all the attributes to develop into a future star, and it is no surprise that Manchester City are keen on him. Kevin De Bruyne is in the twilight stages of his career, and he has been linked with a summer exit from the Etihad. Manchester City will have to replace him adequately, and the youngster could be the ideal addition.
The player has been linked with other English clubs as well, and it will be interesting to see where he ends up. He is likely to be an expensive acquisition, and Manchester City will be desperate to get the deal done.
The Premier League champions are one of the wealthiest clubs in the world, and they have the finances to get the deal across the line. It will be interesting to see if they can succeed in getting the deal done. Signing a quality young player like Florian Wirtz could sort out the attacking midfield department for the foreseeable future.
Wirtz could be tempted to join
The talented young midfielder could be tempted to join them as well. Manchester City are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they have a proven track record when it comes to nurturing young players. They have been fighting for major trophies regularly as well, and that makes them an attractive destination for players.
The German midfielder will be able to work with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City as well. The Spanish manager is regarded as the best coach of his generation, and he could play a key role in the development of the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder.
