Florian Wirtz’s updated transfer value is among the highest in Europe, competing with Liverpool-linked players like Michael Olise, Desire Doue and Morgan Rogers.Wirtz initially struggled at Anfield after he completed a £116m move from Bayer Leverkusen in the 2025 summer transfer window.He has since started to find the back of the net and provide assists on a more consistent basis, but his new €130.4m (around £112.6m) valuation means he is still currently worth less than what Liverpool paid for him. Is it time for Liverpool to move on from Ibrahima Konate?

Ok, let’s all agree Slot’s done, who you want to see in the dugout next?
