Florian Wirtz is becoming increasingly under the microscope at Liverpool after struggling to spark under Andoni Iraola.Though the German has arguably been better already this season than during his debut campaign with Arne Slot, there continues to be a feeling that he is simply not suited to playing for the Reds in the Premier League.As a result, reports surfaced earlier in the week that Liverpool could sell Wirtz, with Bayern Munich retaining an interest in him. “Of course, there is a big history between Bayern Munich and Florian Wirtz.
You know, there were two secret meetings before he decided for Liverpool.“The first one was in Munich and then in Liverpool as well. At this time, yes, they pursued him to go there and if there is such a connection you always have rumours if it’s not the best performance.”READ MORE: How confident Liverpool are of keeping Rio Ngumoha as Arsenal position themselves to pounce“I think Florian Wirtz is doing better than last season already, he has a new position in the team and on the other hand you have a topic about Musiala at the moment who had some illness he’s not totally in shape at the moment as well after his injury last year.“So, if you add one and one it’s two, you often have some transfer rumours and of course if Florian Wirtz was interested in the future to make a step back into the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich would be the first team he would talk to, but at the moment there is nothing planned.“Bayern Munich have a big squad, everybody is really confident,” Falk added.
“He’s playing the same position in the French national team and he’s doing there very well. So, Bayern Munich have a lot of options and don’t forget it’s a lot of money Liverpool paid for Florian Wirtz.”This is unlikely to be the last time Wirtz’s name is mentioned in connection to Bayern, especially if he does not step up in the months ahead.
