Florian Wirtz, a £116 million addition to Liverpool, delivers a transfer message to FSG.
After making a club-record £116 million move from Bayer Leverkusen, Florian Wirtz reportedly told the club's board that he wants to "win everything every year" at Liverpool.
The 22-year-old completed a physical at Liverpool's training facility on Friday, June 20, and signed a long-term contract that is believed to last until 2030.
This Wirtz agreement, which includes an initial £100 million (€117 million, $134.6 million) and £16 million (€18.7 million, $21.5 million) in possible add-ons, is by far the Reds' biggest acquisition.
Darwin Nunez held the record when he came from Benfica in 2022 for a maximum of £85 million (€99 million, $114.5 million).
The German international stated after completing his transfer to Anfield that he intends to win any trophy that Arne Slot's side would be able to win in the future.
Based on his remarks, the club's owners, Fenway Sports Group, may be given a subliminal reminder to bolster the team in order to fulfil his trophy desire.
"I'm not coming [to] have fun here; I also want to achieve something and give the fans what they deserve," he stated in a club interview.
I want to continue at this performance, of course. That certainly inspires people to do more.
Every year, I hope to win everything! I have to make my work first, and we have to do our work.
We want to succeed in the end. My objective is to win the Premier League again and advance in the Champions League, as they did last season. I have a lot of ambition.
Wirtz finally receives a transfer to Liverpool.
Although it hasn't been simple, Fraser Fletcher, Thesportmoment's transfer correspondent, has been reporting for months that Liverpool wants to sign Wirtz.
Although Real Madrid, Manchester City, and other teams have expressed interest in signing the German player, the Merseyside team has finally found their match.
If his add-ons are completed, Wirtz, who finished with 57 goals and 64 assists in 197 appearances for Leverkusen, would become a British transfer record signing.
The most expensive transaction to date was made by Chelsea's Enzo Fernandez in 2023, for £107 million.
"I was just happy for the players here to live it, the moment, and also for the people here," Wirtz continued after Liverpool won the Premier League title.
They had a tremendous season, so I believe it was well-earned. The number of attendees and the mood were simply astounding.
It was a great sight. Indeed, this was also a major point for me: I will raise my own physical and personal standards since, as I believe everyone knows, Liverpool's players are extremely powerful and physically fit machines.
However, I also see this as a chance to improve in this area. So, yes, I simply believed that this was the place for me.
