TOP STORY: Bayern Munich are the favorites to sign Florian Wirtz
Bayern Munich are positioned best in the race to sign Bayer Leverkusen attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz, according to Sky Sports Deutschland’s Florian Plettenberg.
The 20-year-old’s performances this season have caught the attention of multiple clubs across Europe, with Real Madrid, Liverpool, and Manchester City all linked, but it is believed that it is the Bundesliga champions that will land him if they can reach an agreement over a fee.

Wirtz is said to be fully focused on continuing his run of form in manager Xabi Alonso’s side, where he has contributed to 15 goals in 17 games across all competitions this season, and he is yet to make a final decision on his future.
The BayArena hierarchy are looking to try and keep him for one more season, though they accept that the latest he will leave the club will be the summer of 2025, when he will enter the final 12 months of his deal.
