Liverpool are on the verge of finalising their blockbuster move for Florian Wirtz, with reports indicating the deal could be sealed within the next 72 hours.

According to Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg (via reports by SkySports), both clubs are pushing to wrap things up early this coming week.

The Premier League champions submitted a £105 million bid for the Bayer Leverkusen star on Friday.

Now, talks are said to be progressing toward a final package worth €120-140 million (£101m–£118m), potentially including a Liverpool player.

Plettenberg reports that both sides are optimistic and working in a positive atmosphere.

Liverpool’s bid includes structured add-ons and ongoing discussions about which first-team player could be included to sweeten the deal.

The identity of the player hasn’t been disclosed, but any outgoing could play a key role in easing Leverkusen’s valuation and smoothing the transfer terms.

Wirtz is reportedly awaiting the green light to undergo his Liverpool medical, having already agreed on personal terms.

If completed, the Wirtz signing would mark a transformative addition to Arne Slot’s squad, with the 22-year-old expected to be a long-term creative focal point.

He would also become Liverpool’s most expensive signing to date.

Bayer Leverkusen, having already lost Jeremie Frimpong to the Reds, may see a player exchange deal as a strategic win to soften the blow of losing another key star.
