Real Madrid celebrates their recent league title victory, but success prompts decisions, especially regarding their experienced players. Yet, recent reports highlight Real Madrid’s interest in Bayer Leverkusen’s rising talent, Florian Wirtz.
At just 21, Wirtz has shone for Bayer Leverkusen this season, captivating fans with his stellar performances and driving his team’s Bundesliga success.
Local Madrid media disclosed that Real Madrid sees Wirtz as their top transfer target for the upcoming 2025 season.
Matteo Moretto, a reliable source in football transfers, confirmed Real Madrid’s interest in Wirtz in Fabrizio Romano’s Daily Briefing.
The club has been closely monitoring Wirtz and dispatched scouts to watch him closely. They’ve also sought more information about the German playmaker, showing serious intent to pursue him.
Despite their interest, Real Madrid hasn’t made any firm decisions regarding Wirtz, according to the Italian transfer journalist. Wirtz’s price tag of €150 million reflects his immense talent and potential.
With 18 goals and 19 assists in 46 appearances, Wirtz is highly sought after in European football.
For now, Wirtz remains at Bayer Leverkusen, preparing for the UEFA Champions League alongside coach Xabi Alonso.
While many clubs want him, only a few have the financial means and ambition to meet his valuation. Real Madrid is among these elite clubs.
The allure of joining such a prestigious club, combined with the chance to compete at the highest level in Europe, makes a potential move to Madrid enticing for Wirtz.
As negotiations progress in the coming months, the footballing world eagerly awaits Wirtz’s next chapter and his potential impact at Real Madrid if the deal goes through.
