Florian Wirtz, a 23-year-old attacking midfielder, has had a difficult period at Liverpool, leading to uncertainty over his future at the club he joined in July 2025. It was reported that his arrival was not welcomed by some experienced members of the squad. According to Sport Bild, as cited by Sport Witness, the Germany international also had issues with the selfishness of former player Mohamed Salah. The report suggests that if Wirtz leaves Liverpool, an increasing possibility, he could attract interest from Premier League rivals such as Arsenal and Chelsea. A move will not occur in January, but it is anticipated that his situation will be reviewed at the end of the season, as it is considered likely that neither the player nor the club is satisfied with the progression of events. Wirtz, who has 46 caps and 11 goals for Germany, is under contract until 2030 and has a current Transfermarkt market value of €100.00m. Reports from September 2026 suggest Liverpool would demand a profit on the £116m (~€136m) they paid. It was also reported that Bayern Munich was prepared to offer the same amount. In May 2026, other reports suggested Liverpool would consider offers of at least £100m-£115m (~€118m-€135m).
