Florian Wirtz (21 years old) is one of the players for whom the borders of Europe will fight in the next period. In the pole-place to get the signature of the Neamț midfielder, it seems to be Bayern Munich, determined to play all his books to bring one of the most talented footballers of the planet.
For a while, Real Madrid was considered a favorite at Florian Wirtz's transfer. Later appeared in the landscape and Manchester City, who sees the young German as the ideal substitute for Kevin de Bruyne, whose magnificent era on “Etihad” ends this summer.
Bayern makes an unprecedented offer: 250 million euros for Florian Wirtz
But Bayer's opponent in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich, keeps her strengths, preparing for years for this transfer. Bayern would be prepared to put no less than 250,000,000 euros for this purpose.
Half of this amount, ie 125 million euros, would reach Bayer Leverkusen as a transfer amount, thus exceeding the record set by Harry Kane, for whom Tottenham received 100,000,000 euros in the summer of 2023.
The other half would be allocated to the five -year player's contract, Wirtz will earn 25,000,000 euros per season, as well as Musiala and Kane.
L'Equipe: “Hoeness and Rummenigge acts out of the shadow to bring Wirtz”
This information was published by the French daily L'Equipe, confirming the articles in the German tabloid Bild a few weeks ago. It seems that Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, current members of the Supervisory Board of the Club in Munich, personally involved in Wirtz's transfer operation.
Thus, sports director Max Eberl and his collaborators will be mere spectators, their task being to ensure the financial structure for this important move by selling surplus players.
“Hoeness and Rummenigge act in the shadow and have transformed Florian Wirtz's transfer into a personal matter. By bringing him, the two want to withdraw in glory from the club before enjoying the pension”, It is shown in the article in L'Equipe, quoted by Sportal.Blic.rs.
As for the executive director Eberl and the sports director Christoph Freund, their mission will mainly focus on the sale of players. By the end of January, it is stipulated as players like Coman, Kim, Bouy, Palhinha, Gnabry, Goretzka and Guerreiro to leave Bayern.
The backstage of Florian Wirtz's Bring to Bayern
With the money obtained, the Bavarians intend to finance Wirtz's transfer and depreciate the costs generated by the costly extensions of Musiala, Kimmich and Davies contracts.
Hoeness contacted the Wirtz family two years ago, when Florian suffered a serious injury to the cross ligaments. Bayern's official contacted the player's father at that time, who is his businessman, and since then tries to convince him that Bayern is the best option for his son.
During the recovery period, Wirtz was photographed training in a T-shirt by Bayern, which fueled the hopes of the fans of the Munich club. To this is added the fact that Jamal Musiala and Florian are close friends, another asset that the Bavarians rely on.
At the beginning of April, Hoeness last met with Hans-Joachim Wirtz and his wife at his impressive property on the shore of Lake Tegernsee, 50 kilometers south of Munich. Although Bayern's official claims that there have been no transfer negotiations, few would believe this statement at present.
