Even though Liverpool didn’t want the transfer saga to drag on for all that long, fans are starting to get itchy feet as no fresh news has been shared regarding the move; that is, until now.

Julian Nagelsmann has said that Wirtz will be playing for Germany in their game against Portugal on Wednesday evening, which could give Liverpool fans their first taste of the player they’re getting.

Ahead of the game, a new update has emerged from David Lynch regarding when Wirtz’s medical for his Liverpool move could take place.

“It’s just about coming to an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen [over the fee],” he said via the Sport Mole YouTube Channel.

“Big optimism that will get sorted imminently, and I think that the expectation is that it will be done before this initial window closes.”

Later in the interview, Lynch revisited the topic and added: “I think that [the deal] is something that can be done during international duty.

“Federations are usually very accommodating in terms of that, they don’t want it to disrupt their preparations, so Liverpool have got to be very sensitive around that and make sure they’re not getting in the way.

“But, there’s enough time in between training and all those things to get a medical done.”

With the transfer of Wirtz now close to being confirmed, there is no telling what levels Liverpool could reach next season.

Only time will tell what the future holds, but for now, it seems like the Reds’ fans will have to wait just a little bit longer to see the German donning the Red of Liverpool.
