Flo Wirtz: Is FC Liverpool the perfect club for him?!

This video has been trending in Austria, and Germany

The video takes an in-depth look at why Florian Wirtz is currently one of Europe’s most sought-after attacking players and to what extent Liverpool FC could represent the next step in his career. It begins by outlining the 21-year-old’s rapid rise at Bayer Leverkusen, his role as a match-winner in Xabi Alonso’s system, and the importance of his consistent performances for the Bundesliga front-runners.

It then analyses the qualities Wirtz brings and how they would mesh with Jürgen Klopp’s philosophy. The video highlights his outstanding feel for space in the left half-space, his resistance to pressing, his creative final pass, and his willingness to switch straight into counter-pressing. According to the piece, these traits make him an ideal option in Liverpool’s 4-3-3—either as the left-sided No. 8 next to Dominik Szoboszlai or as a second striker behind Darwin Núñez. His ability to unlock tight spaces could supply the creative spark that has been lacking since Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mané left.

Another focal point is the tactical and personnel situation at Anfield. Although Liverpool have already revamped their midfield with Alexis Mac Allister, Ryan Gravenberch, and Wataru Endō, they still lack a playmaker who can break down deep defensive blocks. The video argues that Wirtz’s composure in combination play and his vertical passing would close that gap while allowing him to benefit from the German-speaking core around Klopp, his staff, and ex-Bundesliga players like Szoboszlai.

The economic framework is identified as the main obstacle. Leverkusen plan to keep Wirtz long-term, have him under contract until 2027, and are reportedly demanding a fee north of €100 million. For Liverpool—who under Fenway Sports Group traditionally work within a sustainable budget—such a transfer would be feasible only with Champions League revenue and player sales. Bayern Munich, Manchester City, and Real Madrid are also said to be in the race for the German international, making timing and negotiation strategy crucial.

The video concludes that Wirtz would be an almost perfect sporting fit for Klopp’s dynamic system and could give the Reds the missing element of creative unpredictability. Whether the move happens, however, depends on Leverkusen’s demands, Liverpool’s financial leeway, and the Wirtz family’s career plan. In the short term, much suggests the attacking star will remain in the Bundesliga for at least one more season before a potential move to the Premier League becomes more concrete in future transfer windows
