However, Man City, Bayern Munich, and Chelsea are “also attracting interest” in the German.
According to sources, Liverpool has entered the competition to sign Florian Wirtz, a highly-regarded attacker from Germany.
The Reds are still seeking to strengthen their attacking options even after having a strong start to the current campaign, winning seven of the first ten Premier League games and scoring 23 goals.
Darwin Nunez has improved after an uneven first season at Anfield, and Mohamed Salah has been playing at his best so far this season, but Jurgen Klopp might not be able to resist the chance to bring his countryman Wirtz to the Premier League.
Liverpool has reportedly expressed interest in the £80 million-rated attacker, joining teams like Manchester City, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich. This information was reported by the Daily Star.
According to the article, Klopp intends to leverage his connections in Germany to give his team an advantage over the competition for Wirtz’s signature.
According to sources, Liverpool has entered the competition to recruit Florian Wirtz, a highly regarded German international.
According to rumours, Jurgen Klopp wants to utilise his connections in Germany to help keep a number of potential suitors away from the 20-year-old.
For Leverkusen, Wirtz has started the season in excellent form, leading Xabi Alonso’s team to an undefeated start.
It is also said that the 20-year-old believes he has better options available to him after the recent setbacks of the Old Trafford club, and that Manchester United is no longer in the running to recruit him.
As Xabi Alonso’s club is still undefeated this season, Wirtz has been in excellent form for Bayer Leverkusen, racking up six goals and nine assists across all competitions.
Earlier this year, Alonso compared the 12-cap German international to Lionel Messi, offering a possible explanation for why so many of Europe’s elite clubs seem to be vying for his services.
“There are good players and there are players who look good on the pitch,” stated the former midfielder for Liverpool. The player with the best appearance makes nice but sometimes ineffective decisions.
In addition to being wanted by teams like Manchester City, Chelsea, and Bayern Munich, the attacker has 12 caps for Germany.
Mo Salah has had a remarkably successful season thus far at Anfield, but there are still whispers that he might join the Saudi Pro League.
Why is Messi such a talent? because he understands when and how to play basic passes. “You’re in a better position?,” says Messi. You have the ball right here!”
It’s more important to make the best and brightest decision rather than the most audacious one. Florian’s capable of that. He’s so good because of this.
There may be an attacking vacancy at Anfield in the upcoming months given the ongoing speculations of Salah moving to the Saudi Pro League.
While Leverkusen will probably reject any January offers for Wirtz in their quest for a Bundesliga championship, Wirtz is likely to join Klopp in Merseyside at the end of the current campaign.

Liverpool are preparing for the January transfer window.
Liverpool look set to make their first signing before the January transfer window opens.
United have been linked with a number of names since the end of the summer and the player has long been an intriguing figure for Jurgen Klopp.
Despite engine room restructuring being the sole focus of the summer, Liverpool continue to look for other midfielders to add more options to their number six.
Andre Trindad has been on the radar at Anfield for some time, but the summer move is over and he is now the main name linked with a move to Merseyside in January.
Fluminense have said they will part ways with Andre until at least January as they will need all hands on deck this weekend if they are to win the Copa Libertadores title.
According to sports journalist François Plato, it has been confirmed that the Brazilian has “verbally agreed personal terms with Liverpool” amid interest in signing him in the new year.
However, no official deal has been signed yet and there are other clubs interested in Andre.
One of Liverpool’s main rivals for the midfielder’s signature is Arsenal, who are monitoring the situation with “several clubs in Spain and Italy”.
Every team interested in Andre has heard the same thing: This proposed transfer won’t happen. From Fluminense to the Copa Libertadores final.
The 22-year-old is valued at around €40m and both Arsenal and Liverpool are targeting him.
Andre is under contract with Fluminense until 2026, but the club have resigned over the possibility that this year could be his last game
