According to TBR Football, Liverpool’s chances of signing Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Florian Wirtz depend on Xabi Alonso’s future plans.
The Germany international is waiting to make a decision on his future until he finds out what his manager is going to do.
Alonso was linked with a move away from Leverkusen with both Liverpool and Bayern Munich interested in his services.
However, the Reds appointed Arne Slot and Bayern Munich went with Vincent Kompany after both of them were rejected by the Spaniard who guided Leverkusen to the league title last season.
Alonso staying at the club encouraged Wirtz, who signed a new contract at the club but some of the biggest clubs in the world have taken notice of his brilliant performances with a view to a future move.
As per the report, Manchester City have been joined by both Liverpool and Arsenal as the clubs interested in signing the Bundesliga star.
Even without making new signings, the Reds have done well under Slot and their fine performances this season have shown that they could challenge for the Premier League title.
