Bayer Leverkusen is having a complicated season, which quickly led to the dismissal of coach Gerardo Seoane. Since then, the team has been taken over by Xabi Alonso and after a complicated start, the young coach is in the process of raising the Blacks and Reds. Now eighth, Bayer Leverkusen has moved up the standings and is only three points away from a possible European qualification. This return to form of the Pillendrehers is no stranger to the return of Florian Wirtz. The 19-year-old attacking midfielder had been on the flank since March 13 against Cologne with a ruptured left anterior cruciate ligament. Broke in full flight last season while carrying his team (10 goals and 14 offerings in 31 games), Florian Wirtz was already popular with Manchester United and especially Bayern Munich, whose interest had not waned despite his injury.
The last few weeks have clearly not played against him, since Florian Wirtz has already found a good level despite the heavy injury he suffered. Scorer in his first friendly match against Zurich (4-1), he quickly found good feelings: “my head is ready to take on challenges fully and do everything with both legs. It’s new to find the match atmosphere that you don’t have in training. In future Test matches, this will build and grow more and more. Then I’ll be 100% back to who I was before. We worked well and were able to implement our plan. From next year, you can count on me again.” Under contract until June 2027 and wanting to continue in 2024 with Bayer Leverkusen, Florian Wirtz is nonetheless closely followed by European leaders.
Wirtz does not want to leave right away
Playing 13 official matches since his return from injury for 2 goals scored and 6 gifts distributed, Florian Wirtz intends to resume cruising speed before taking the plunge. “I’m not looking too far into the future yet. The most important things are that I stay healthy and can continue to develop. I am well placed here in Leverkusen. I know what I have here. I also noticed this when I was in the cover phase. The opportunities to take my body and me as a footballer to the next level are just very good, the environment is perfect. That’s why I don’t miss anything here at the moment.” he explained recently in an interview for Picture. Remarks which join those of his father and representing Hans-Joachim Wirtz at the beginning of the year in Kicker : “Florian is in good hands with Bayer until the European Championship 2024. Of course every young player wants to play with the best, but Florian is still with Bayer until the European Championship 2024 in good hands .”
However, FC Barcelona decides to place its pawns as revealed Sky Sports Germany. Thus, the Blaugranas would have contacted the father of the player Hans-Joachim Wirtz to take the temperature for a potential transfer and to have information on the situation of the player. However, this is no guarantee of movement in the transfer market. Already the position of the player and his clan is therefore to wait for the summer of 2024 to go to a bigger club. In addition, the 100 million euros requested by Bayer Leverkusen have something to cool and the financial worries of FC Barcelona make the possibility of a transfer this summer almost impossible. However, FC Barcelona places itself in this file and anticipates for the future by coming to the news for Florian Wirtz.
