Will Florian Wirtz eventually end up at Bayern Munich? There is no doubt at this stage that the Bavarians are interested in the Bayer Leverkusen star, but the big question seems to be whether they can convince him to come – and if so, when the transfer will take place.
Back in December, Kicker reported that Wirtz had agreed a contract extension with Bayer Leverkusen beyond 2027, but Die Werkself were quick to deny any deal had been struck.
While Leverkusen remain determined to hold on to their prized asset, AZ reports that Bayern have a “realistic chance” of signing Wirtz this summer and are able and willing to finance the move if they can persuade the 21-year-old to join them.
Should they be able to persuade Wirtz, Bayern are optimistic that they will be able to sign him for a fee below his market value of €140 million, the Munich-based publication adds.
Bayern will welcome Wirtz and Leverkusen to the Allianz Arena for the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday night.
