Wirtz: Does the Leverkusen shooting star stay despite Bayern rumors?

Florian Wirtz, the exciting talent of Bayer Leverkusen, ensures much -coveted speculation about his future in the football world. Michael Ballack, former captain of the German national team, strongly recommends that the 21-year-old offensive player stay in Leverkusen. He points out that the current environment offers the talented Wirtz the best opportunities for his further development. Ballack notes that a move to Bayern Munich is not necessary as long as Leverkusen is successful. If this success stops, Wirtz could even consider whether he is not changing directly abroad - recently Real Madrid was mentioned as a possible destination, where the competition is extremely strong, such as the reporting of laola1.de

But Bayern have long stretched out their feelers after Wirtz. There have been reports of the first contacts between the record champions and the talented player for over five years. This has reinforced the rumors that Wirtz may stay with Leverkusen for another year before he dares to take a top European club after the 2026 World Cup. Despite the possibility of early contract extension by 2027, the role of Bayern Munich will also be discussed in the background. According to current information, the Munich team try to position themselves strategically and influence the conversations between Wirtz and Leverkusen, such as Wa.de reported.
