CaughtOffside journalist Mark Brus wrote in The Daily Briefing that if Wirtz and Liverpool part ways in the near future, it is likely that Bayern will be the leading contender. Brus added that Real Madrid or Barcelona should also be considered.

According to the journal SPORT, FC Barcelone has been interested in Florian Wirtz since before his move to the Premier League. There is currently no negotiation between FC Barcelone and Liverpool for Wirtz. A potential transfer would require a particularly significant financial operation. Wirtz remains under a long-term contract with Liverpool.

On the Sport Bild show Die Lage der Liga, Oliver Bierhoff stated his view that Florian Wirtz could play very well under Hansi Flick at Barcelona. Bierhoff also said that Wirtz would have space and excellent footballing teammates there. There is no mention of any approach from Barcelona for Wirtz.

According to El Nacional, Liverpool have offered German attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz, 23, to Barcelona in a proposed swap deal that would see Dutch international Frenkie de Jong move to Liverpool. Wirtz joined Liverpool on 01/07/2025 and his contract expires on 30/06/2030. The German international has 45 caps and 11 goals for his country. His current market value is €100.00m, according to Transfermarkt. He has also been linked with Bayern Munich.
