Liverpool want £100m deal for ANOTHER Florian Wirtz

Liverpool broke the British transfer record to sign Florian Wirtz during the summer transfer window. The 22-year-old was acquired from Bayer Leverkusen for an initial £100m - and that fee could rise to £116m depending on bonuses and add-ons.

Wirtz, 22, was under contract at Leverkusen until 2027 - and led his former club to the German league and cup double in 2024. As one of the foremost playmakers in world football, the Germany attacker commanded a top-dollar fee.

His signing was a major power play from Fenway Sports Group - during a summer when the Liverpool owners proved NO player is beyond their reach.

FSG proved that by going after Alexander Isak - whose signing from Newcastle BROKE the transfer record set by Wirtz just weeks previously.

Liverpool interested in Michael Olise

And Liverpool have been tipped to soon repeat their Wirtz trick - for Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise. The France international is 23 and coming to the peak of his powers.

This season the left-footer has scored three goals and added an assist in only three Bundesliga matches. It follows a devastating debut season for FC Hollywood - with Liverpool now tracking the former Crystal Palace standout.

Olise was signed for around £53m last summer - which will prove to be a bargain sum - and is under contract at the Allianz Arena until 2029.

It means Bayern are quite well protected from a transfer fee perspective - but as we saw with Isak, when a player decides enough is enough there is not much a club can do other than facilitate his exit.

Olise fancies a move back to the Premier League - according to various recent reports - and Liverpool as well as Manchester City will be right there for his signature.

Football Insider claims that the winger will go for around the same price as Wirtz - with the Reds soon to be looking for a long-term successor for Mohamed Salah.

Olise will go for over £100m

“It’s more than probably just Liverpool who’ll be looking at Michael Olise – his career is just going up and up,” the report reads.

“Liverpool, if they are looking to find a long-term replacement from Mohamed Salah, Olise would figure on that list.

“In the current market, you’ve seen players going for £100million – you’ve seen Wirtz go for over £100m, Isak for well over £100m as well.

“Olise is on a long-term contract and a player with so much potential – he’d probably command similar fees.

“It’s not an easy deal to do, but I don’t think Bayern Munich will be counting on losing Michael Olise anytime soon.”

Bayern are reported to be keen on tying Olise down to a new contract. There have been conflicting reports over whether or not he’s got a release clause in his current deal - but Bayern must convince their star man that his future is best served in Bavaria.

Otherwise he could be following Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong and Hugo Ekitike out of the Bundesliga to the Premier League champions.
