Overview

  • FC Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen officially announced Wirtz’s move on June 20, 2025, after successful medical tests and contract signing.
  • The transfer package is reported to include up to €150 million in fees, making Wirtz the most expensive German footballer and Liverpool’s record signing.
  • Wirtz has agreed a long-term deal and is set to rank among Liverpool’s top earners with an annual salary of around €20 million.
  • The German international cited the opportunity for a new challenge and Arne Slot’s sporting plan as key factors in his decision to leave the Bundesliga.
  • Leverkusen will use the significant fee to navigate a broader squad overhaul after also losing coach Xabi Alonso, defender Jonathan Tah and winger Jeremie Frimpong.
