💣 Liverpool Smash Transfer Record for Florian Wirtz – Here’s Why He’s a Game-Changer
🔥 “His name is going stratospheric.”
Liverpool didn’t just make a signing — they dropped a bomb on the transfer window.
Florian Wirtz, one of the most exciting midfielders in world football, has officially joined the Reds for a club-record £100M, rising to £116M with add-ons.
German football insider Raphael Honigstein called it "a superstar purchase" and tipped the 22-year-old to become one of the biggest names in the Premier League.

Wirtz isn't just hype — he's proven. He combines elite-level creativity, vision, and calmness under pressure. At just 22, he’s already operating like a 10-year veteran.

Clubs were lining up — Bayern, Man City, even PSG had eyes on him.
But Arne Slot came with a clear plan. He offered Wirtz the #10 role at the heart of a reshaped Liverpool attack — not as just another piece, but the main playmaker.
