Liverpool has made an improved bid to German side Bayer Leverkusen in the pursuit of talented attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz, hoping to end a protracted transfer saga that started in mid-May.
In the late evening on Friday night UK-time, Paul Joyce of the Times reports the Reds have upped their anti to £113 million ($153 million) —£100 million ($135 million) base and up to£13 million ($18 million) in add-ons. Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano didn't add any further information in the same time window but quote-tweeted an earlier post with a handful of emojis.
“Liverpool are advancing to complete Wirtz deal in next days, here we go soon," he wrote earlier in the day. "Negotiations at final stages with details being sorted then Wirtz will travel for medical, plan confirmed."
