Liverpool has increased their offer to Bayer Leverkusen for Florian Wirtz to $153 million. Leverkusen has maintained a $171 million asking price for Wirtz, which Liverpool has no intention of meeting.
Wirtz\'s contract expires in 2027 and Leverkusen would prefer not to allow him to enter the final season of his deal.
Wirtz has already visited Liverpool to look for houses should the transfer be agreed upon as most assume is inevitable.
Wirtz was the Bundesliga Player of the Season in 23-24 when Leverkusen won the Bundesliga. Wirtz had 16 goals and 15 assists last season as Leverkusen finished second behind Bayern Munich.
