Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen continue to discuss a potential transfer involving Florian Wirtz, reports in Germany state, with a potential swap deal in the offing to help reduce the amount of money the newly crowned Premier League champions would need to pay.
While he may drift unnoticed between the lines on the pitch, Wirtz has been unable to escape the headlines during an early season transfer saga. The sought-after playmaker was initially thought to be subject of a three-way tussle between Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid.
