‘HE’S ALWAYS READY TO LEARN’ – FORMER TEAMMATE SPEAKS ABOUT LIVERPOOL TARGET MILOS KERKEZ
Paul said:
“Liverpool have offered £114 million, £5 million up on the previous bid, which was turned down.
“Wirtz will be on board for pre-season, which begins on July 7th, and obviously they’ve got a friendly with Preston later that week.
It’s the biggest deal that Liverpool have ever struck.
Like I said, they’ve never gone anywhere near £100 million, let alone break through that barrier and then some.
Fan impatience has grown steadily since the announcement of fellow Leverkusen departee Jeremie Frimpong’s signature, but given the complexity and sheer size of the deal, it was imperative that Liverpool get this right.
The club’s record transfer fee and the £100 million mark have both been smashed in one fell swoop.
It cannot be overstated – this is one of the most exciting signings in the modern history of Liverpool Football Club.
