Will Bayern Munich get Florian Wirtz?
According to a report from Abendzeitung journalist Maximilian Koch (as captured by @iMiaSanMia), Bayern Munich is not sweating the recent criticism hurled from Bayer Leverkusen CEO Fernando Carro:
Fernando Carro’s recent statements criticizing Bayern bosses over Florian Wirtz were received calmly at Säbener Straße. Bayern are aware that Carro is passionate and is fighting to keep his player. Nevertheless, Bayern remain determined to sign Wirtz, who is the absolute priority. Wirtz has yet to make a final decision on his future. Should Xabi Alonso and other key players depart the club, there wouldn’t be many reasons for him to stay.
Bayern are hoping to sign Wirtz for less than his €140m market value. But in general, the club is willing to go to the limit and even beyond. The move is considered feasible internally from a financial perspective.
The chase for Wirtz will carry on…but will it be a fruitful result for Bayern Munich?
