Florian Wirtz has stirred up quite the transfer saga between Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen.
Landing Wirtz, widely regarded as a generational talent, would be a major show of power from the Premier League champions and could potentially be the kickstart of an attacking overhaul this summer.
Incomings and outgoings alike could alter the very face of a department that has plenty of lingering questions to be answered between now and 7pm on September 1, the close of the summer transfer window.

Incomings:
Getting Wirtz over the line is critical approaching the week three marker from the moment in which the Reds' challenge to Bayern Munich and Manchester City was first established.
Leverkusen, meanwhile, get rid of the risk of losing out to a lesser fee in a year's time, or for free in 2027.
Afterwards the remaining issue in the attacking line is that of a No.9 or centre forward.
He is thought to be available for £60m and vying for a move to the Premier League.
Outgoings:
As stated, Nunez would have to depart to free up the No.9 shirt and facilitate the arrival of Gyokeres.
Additionally, looking back at the attacking midfield options Liverpool will have if Wirtz arrives there will be too many competing for the same starting berth.
The German would seemingly take ownership of the No.10 role, freeing up Dominik Szoboszlai to move to become a No.8 but with the ability to cover the attacking midfield position as required
Liverpool do not want to entertain the Colombian's exit having already rebuffed Barcelona's approach but in the Italian's case it is less clear cut as he has not played such a vital impact since arriving last summer.
For the sake of stability and the fact he is set to have a full pre-season with Slot's side this year, the hope would be that he remains a Liverpool player and shows improvement.
How the attack could look after four more transfers
No.10/Attacking midfield options: Florian Wirtz, Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister, Curtis Jones.
Winger options: Mohamed Salah, Federico Chiesa, Luis Diaz, Cody Gakpo.
