BANJARMASINPOST.CO.ID – Liverpool have just finished what might be the biggest summer transfer when they confirm the recruitment of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen.
The Reds have broken the British transfer record by recruiting German international players in an agreement worth up to £ 116.5 million, beyond the transfer that brought Moises Caicedo from Brighton to Chelsea.
Liverpool, as shown in the graph above, never touched the £ 100 million for the transfer fee of a player, which shows how much their belief is that Wirtz will be a very influential star for the club.
The attacking midfielder was the second recruit that was brought in from Bayer Leverkusen this summer after Jeremie Frimpong.
And the first recruitment from the Bundesliga has said a few excellent words about his new teammate.

The Dutch Liverpool wing -back described the German star as “Very, Very, Very Special Player”, and the Reds supporters should be happy with the prospects of watching him playing next season.
* Why Florian Wirtz is a big recruitment for Liverpool
The appearance of the 22 -year -old striker in the Bundesliga in the last two seasons shows that he has the potential to become a maker of the premier league champions regularly.
He is the number ten player who has the ability to consistently score goals and give assists on the front lines, which means he can be a pleasant player to watch at the end of the third field.
Wirtz ended the 2024/25 season by scoring 16 goals and 14 assists in 45 matches in all competitions, after scoring 18 goals and 19 assists in 49 appearances for Leverkusen in the previous season.
That is, the German international has scored 34 goals and 33 assists in all competitions in the last two seasons, which showed that he offered a constant threat as a goal scorer and goal creator from the attacking midfielder.
As you can see in the table above, Wirtz appeared impressive in the Champions League this season, ranked high among his colleagues in the same position both as a goalscorer and goal creator, which showed that he could appear at the highest level.
Therefore, the star, priced at £ 116.5 million, could be a major recruit as a stars of attackers who have proven their abilities in Germany, and they might immediately repeat that step.
