Arsene Wenger claimed that one of the conditions of Florian Wirtz choosing to join Liverpool was that he was given assurances that he would play in a central position. "Wirtz had the chance between Munich and Liverpool," Wenger said on beIN Sports.

"He said to Liverpool, 'I'll come to you if I play number 10 — I do not want to play wide.' "To get him, Liverpool said OK [to Wirtz's request]. "To play Wirtz, they took Szoboszlai out, and then what did they do against Aston Villa?

And tonight, they've brought Wirtz back but he will play on the side. "Because the manager has said [to Wirtz], 'if you want to play a game, you have to play wide, because I don't want to disturb the midfield.' That will be interesting to see." Wirtz almost claimed an assist as Liverpool recorded a 1-0 win over Madrid, but Dominik Szoboszlai was thwarted by Thibaut Courtois after the German had played his teammate in on goal.
