Liverpool have reached a full agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for the signing of 22-year-old midfield sensation Florian Wirtz, in what promises to be a landmark deal in British football history.

The guaranteed fee stands at a staggering £100 million, with an additional £16 million in performance-related add-ons. Should all clauses be triggered, Wirtz would become the most expensive signing ever in British football — surpassing the previous record held by Chelsea, who paid £115 million for Moisés Caicedo.

Interest in the German playmaker was fierce, with Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Real Madrid all monitoring the situation closely. But Wirtz made no secret of his ambition: he dreams of wearing the red shirt at Anfield. That desire played a decisive role in the negotiations.

The midfielder is set to undergo a medical in the coming days, and the move will become official once the summer transfer window officially opens.

This deal smashes Liverpool’s previous transfer record — the £85 million paid to Benfica for Darwin Núñez, who is now expected to leave the club this summer after an inconsistent spell on Merseyside.
