This was thought to be Bayern Munich's race to lose, though. Wirtz was considered to be a natural signing for them and one that everyone, including Bayern, thought would go through.
Manchester City offered a minor hiccup by inserting themselves into proceedings. They're after a replacement for Kevin De Bruyne and Wirtz fits the bill perfectly.
Only, both clubs are now completely out of the running. Liverpool are pushing forward on Wirtz after the playmaker picked them as his next club.
And now Fabrizio Romano has dropped the update we've been waiting for.

"Negotiations at final stages with details being sorted then Wirtz will travel for medical, plan confirmed."
