Liverpool told they ‘would be crazy’ to sell Wirtz after Bayern Munich transfer revelation

Liverpool have been warned that they would be crazy to sell Florian Wirtz despite his difficult start at Anfield, according to European football journalist Kevin Hatchard. Liverpool signed the 23-year-old Germany international from Bayer Leverkusen in the summer of 2025 for approximately £116m, but recent struggles have sparked speculation regarding a potential permanent transfer to Bayern Munich.

Wirtz recorded five goals and three assists in 33 Premier League appearances last season as he worked to adapt to the league's physical demands. Meanwhile, former Manchester United scout Mick Brown claimed that Wirtz would welcome a move to Bayern Munich, suggesting the German club's playing style would better suit the playmaker.
