Jurgen Klinsmann has warned Florian Wirtz he will need to fight for his place at Liverpool after his tricky start to life at Anfield. Wirtz has been spotted putting in extra work during training sessions with his country as he tries to return to the sort of levels that earned him his move to Anfield in the first place, having been supported by a number of German legends in recent days.

Klinsmann is the latest to throw his weight behind the forward, although he did offer a warning to Wirtz about the challenge he faces at Liverpool. “He'll have to fight his way through it step by step – and that's what he will.

He's a fighter.” Klinsmann’s comments come after fellow German legends Bastian Schweinsteiger and Philipp Lahm supported Wirtz, and insisted he will eventually find his feet at Liverpool. We should be happy that we have such a player in Germany." Lahm added: "I'm not worried about Florian Wirtz at all because he's such an outstanding, brilliant player who simply makes his teammates better.
