Florian Wirtz will not be Liverpool's last piece of transfer company with two more deals that are quickly completed in Anfield, because Arne Slot is his team for next season
So far, Liverpool has made the largest splash of the summer transfer window with the confirmation of the arrival of Florian Wirtz in Anfield. The transfer could see a British record costs that has been paid with the package that comes to £ 116 million including add-ons.
Wirtz already has a number of elevated goals to complete with his teammates. “I would like to win everything every year! First of all we have to do our work, I have to make my job,” he said.
“In the end we want to be successful. Last season they won the Premier League, so my goal will certainly win again and continue in the Champions League. I am really ambitious.”
With such an ambition it is no wonder that the Reds will no longer be published in the coming days and weeks. Arne Slot has already seen the arrival of Jeremie Frimpong in Anfield, and ex-Bayer Leverkusen teammate Wirtz sees a significant increase in expenditure after completing his medical on Friday.
But more things will be done to be carried out in the coming days as Liverpool tries to equip itself with the possibility of retaining the Premier League title. Two deals can be completed soon: one in and one out.
Van Milos Kerkez is expected to travel to Merseyside on Tuesday to undergo his medical after Liverpool corresponded to a fee of £ 40 million with Bournemouth. The full-back will come in and offer strong competition to Andy Robertson.
Personal conditions have already been agreed for the Hungary teammate of Dominik Szoboszlai while the Premier League champions get a different deal over the line. The arrival of Kerkez, however, could see Robertson Mull a possible move to Atletico Madrid.
The arrival of Wirtz was perhaps not to make Liverpool with Bayer Leverkusen this summer. Defender Jarell Quansah encloses a £ 35 million on the Bundesliga side.
Reports suggest that the transfer could be agreed within 24-48 hours, with the former Lennee of Bristol Rovers already offered its approval. The negotiation area was already noticed in their final phase.
An exit for the young defender in the coming days could see the Reds moving to Crystal Palace Center-back Marc Guehi. The deal of the ex-Chelsea-Jongere will end within 12 months.
A striker also remains a target for Liverpool, especially when Darwin Nunez leaves as expected. Newcastle Ace Alexander Isak is one of the admiration, but a deal would not be easy.
