Liverpool have reached an agreement with Bayer Leverkusen for the transfer of 22-year-old German footballer Florian Wirtz for 137.5 million euros
The transfer includes an initial payment of €117.5 million (£100 million) and a further €18.8 million (£16 million) in variables and one of European football’s great gems is expected to sign with the Anfield club for the next five years, until 2030, as The Athletic reported today.

This fee represents a record figure for the current Premier League champions, but also for the entire competition in its history, surpassing the highest transfer so far, that of Moises Caicedo to Chelsea, for a total amount of 133 million euros.
In recent days, there was talk of a deal worth 150 million euros, which was what the German club demanded, with Wirtz under contract until June 30, 2027. However, in the last few hours, the deal has been closed for a slightly lower amount and with some variables depending on objectives.
Bayern Munich withdrew from the race
Wirtz was also on Bayern Munich’s radar this summer, but the high price demanded by the Leverkusen club and the insistence of the team led by Arne Slot were key to the midfielder ending up informing of his desire to land at Anfield.
Before that, it had already been reported from Germany that the full international would have informed Real Madrid, who also closely monitored the player, of his intention to sign for the current Bundesliga champion, although that also did not come to fruition.
The German midfielder registered 16 goals and 15 assists in 45 games last season, as Leverkusen finished second in the Bundesliga and reached the last 16 of the Champions League. In the previous campaign, Wirtz played a key role in winning the first Bundesliga title under Xabi Alonso, with an unbeaten season in the domestic tournament, as well as reaching the final of the Europa League scoring a total of 18 goals and providing 20 assists in 49 games.
The signing will be made official in the coming hours, confirming the ‘bombshell’ of a summer transfer window that has only just begun

Nepovedlo se mi to, mrzelo Ledeckou. Svatý Mořic opět neodčarovala
Start se odkládal o více než čtvrt hodiny. Jízda předjezdců ukázala, že jeden ze skoků může závodnice vyhazovat mimo vytyčenou trať, tak bylo sjezdovku třeba upravit.Ledecká si vedla podobně jako ve sjezdech. S číslem 13 s ní byl do poslední chvíle na startu opět nový člen realizačního týmu, bývalý elitní italský sjezdař Michael Mair. Z téměř 1900 metrů dlouhé trati zvládla velmi dobře její závěr, ale ztratila v točivější prostřední části. Ani její rychlost nepatřila tentokrát k nejvyšším.„Nepovedlo se mi to, což mě mrzí,“ přiznávala v České televizi. „Se Svatým Mořicem nejsem úplně kamarádka, nejvýše jsem tu byla sedmá, jinak jsem se většinou těsně vešla do třicítky. Musíme na tom s týmem zamakat,“ připomněla. Na stejné sjezdovce se letos stala mistryní a vicemistryní světa, ale na snowboardu.Skok Rominger, který dělal problémy předjezdcům i několika závodnicím, přitom zvládla. „Ten skok byl nepříjemný už ve sjezdu, kde jsem měla hrozně dlouhé skoky.
