Florian Wirtz’s agent has revealed he wanted the Germany and Liverpool star to sign for Real Madrid in the summer and hasn’t given up hope of securing the player a future move to the Bernabeu.
The German star made a real name for himself in the Bundesliga as one of the most cretaive players in the league, and his performances caught the attentions of *LIVERPOOL*boss Arne Slot, who wanted to add some of his own signings to the attack.
And after a bad start to life in England, Wirtz has improved a great deal since he arrived from Bayer Leverkusen over the summer, now adding goal contributions on a regular basis.
The 22-year-old was expected to be used as a number 10 when he first arrived at Anfield, but he excelled on both wings as well, but once again, his agent has been sturring the transfer speculation regarding the talented star.
He told the Phrasenmaher podcast: “That year, it simply wasn’t the right time due to the squad and the budget. Even Real Madrid’s coffers aren’t always overflowing. But my wish remains that Florian will play there one day.
“I wasn’t deeply enough involved in the offers that were on the table. My greatest wish, of course, would have been to have Florian at Real Madrid to see – and I don’t think I’m alone in that. Also because of my history with Toni, because of my relationship with those in charge at Real Madrid, I also think he would be in very good hands there.
“He’s doing quite well in Liverpool now, he’s a very young player and who knows what might happen in his career.”
Could Madrid push for a move in the summer?
Wirtz has a massive contract at LIVERPOOL, he seems happy enough and we will only know if he wants that move to Madrid if they make an official offer. But considering how much it would cost in transfer fees, agents fees and the players wages, right now may not be the best time to make a move.
They will probably wait a few years before making an offer as his contract will run down a bit, but we can see Madrid making transfer moves in the summer, it will just not be for Wirtz.
