Sami Khedira is a living legend of the game, with the former Real Madrid man now weighing in on a player that Liverpool look set to sign.
Liverpool are coming off the back of an impressive season themselves, with the Anfield outfit winning the Premier League title during Arne Slot’s first season in charge of the club.
Despite their dominance throughout the 2024-25 Premier League season, however, there are still a couple of areas within Slot’s squad that could do with upgrading.

And, even though Jeremie Frimpong is the only one to have had his Anfield switch confirmed, that hasn’t stopped Khedira from giving his verdict on a player that Liverpool look set to sign.
Speaking ahead of the Champions League Final, Khedira gave his verdict on who the best German player is and delved into why he thinks Florian Wirtz is better than others, such as Manuel Neuer, Leroy Sane and Marco Reus.
“Look at his skills, look at his impact on the game, everybody would like to sign him,” he said.

Before an opportunity for Liverpool to buy Wirtz became a reality, a number 10 likely wasn’t all that high on Liverpool’s priority list due to the stellar form that Dominik Szoboszlai has found himself in this season.
The Hungary international has been a key cog in Slot’s set-up, but with Wirtz likely to arrive, things may start to get a bit complicated in the middle of the park.
Wirtz has been in fine form this season for Bayer Leverkusen, and due to the way he carries the ball and his keen eye for goal, the young German could be exactly what Slot needs to take his team to the next level.
