This is when the 20-year-old is expected to respond to a new contract offer from Leverkusen

The future of Florian Wirtz, the midfield maestro of Bayer Leverkusen and a key player for the German national team, is set to be clarified in early April. This is when the 20-year-old is expected to respond to a new contract offer from Leverkusen, which includes a release clause of €125 million.

While Bayer Leverkusen are keen to retain their star player, they are well aware that keeping him long-term may prove challenging. The proposed contract would extend Wirtz's stay at the club until 2028, but the inclusion of the release clause ensures that Leverkusen cannot block a transfer if a suitable offer arrives.

Despite interest from top European clubs, including Real Madrid, Wirtz is expected to sign the new deal. The young playmaker remains loyal to Leverkusen, and his representatives believe his market value will peak after the 2026 World Cup, allowing him to secure even better personal terms in the future.

Wirtz's decision comes amid a challenging period for both the player and the club. The German international suffered an injury in mid-March, sidelining him for several weeks, while Bayer Leverkusen were eliminated from the Champions League Round of 16 by Bayern Munich.
