Florian Wirtz: Bayer Leverkusen's jewel in focus of the top European clubs!

Leverkusen, Deutschland - Florian Wirtz is one of the most sought -after players in European football. The 21-year-old player of Bayer 04 Leverkusen attracts the attention of some of the greatest clubs, including Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid. A change in the coming summer is considered more likely, while a contract extension in his current association appears less likely.

FC Bayern chose Wirtz as his main goal for the summer. According to information from Sport.sky.de also shows Manchester City strong interest in Wirtz. The association observes the situation of Kevin de Bruyne, whose contract expires in the summer and which will then be 34 years old. Should de Bruyne leave the club at this time, Wirtz could be the ideal solution for City.

Another point of uncertainty at City concerns head coach Pep Guardiola. His current contract is also only valid until next summer, which raises questions about his future. If Guardiola does not stay, the future of Manchester City could change drastically.

other clubs and Bavaria's strategy

The interest in Florian Wirtz is not only limited to Bavaria and Manchester City. Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United also thrown an eye on the talented player from the Premier League. In addition, Paris Saint-Germain from France and Real Madrid is interested in Wirtz, although the latter has not yet become active.

Bayer 04 Leverkusen is pursuing a clear strategy: Sales to another European club is more likely than a change to a Bundesliga controller. The club emphasizes that they want to avoid switching to Bayern. The Werkelf hopes for a contract extension from Wirtz, which is still bound by 2027, also sees the possibility of a record sale that could be between 90 and 100 million euros plus possible bonus payments. Rumors are even circulating about possible players who could be built into a transfer, such as Paul Wanner, who is currently borrowed from 1. FC Heidenheim.

These developments make it clear that Florian Wirtz is not only a player of great importance for Bayer 04 Leverkusen, but also a key figure for several top clubs in Europe. The coming months promise exciting decisions for his career path and for the clubs involved.
