Florian Wirtz’s saga has just taken another turn after it emerged that Liverpool were concrete candidates to land the German international last week.

The BBC have now reported that Manchester City have now pulled out for the deal.

Senior reporter Sami Mokbel has revealed:

“BBC Sport understands Pep Guardiola’s side are withdrawing their initial interest in the German international owing to the soaring costs of any deal.”

“It is estimated that an agreement to sign the 22-year-old would represent the biggest deal in City’s history, potentially reaching as much as 300m euros inclusive of transfer fees and wages.”
