German football association (DFB) sporting director Rudi Völler believes Bayer Leverkusen forward Florian Wirtz will thrive at Liverpool.
Recall that the Reds are edging ever closer towards a club-record deal for Wirtz, having seen two opening offers rejected by Leverkusen over the past few weeks.
Speaking with DAZN, Voller stated that he’s convinced Wirtz will be successful at Anfield if he eventually joins the club.

“It’s no secret that he’d like to go to Liverpool,” he told DAZN, as quoted by Sport1. “I know the clubs are negotiating with each other.
“(But with) transfers like this (it’s) often the case that it takes a while until an agreement is finally reached. Of course, in the end, you have the feeling it will go through.
“Florian Wirtz has proven that he’s a very, very valuable player. Not just for Leverkusen, but also for the national team. That’s why he costs a few euros more.”
