Breaking down the number of games Florian Wirtz played before scoring his first Premier League goal for Liverpool since joining the club.
On 28 Dec 2025 GMT+7, we analyze the number of games German playmaker Florian Wirtz had played before unlocking his first Premier League goal for Liverpool, under the management of Dutch coach Arne Slot, since his arrival at the club.
Looking back to last summer, the top club at Anfield invested a massive budget of over 150 million euros, or approximately 5.486 billion baht, to sign him from Bayer Leverkusen—the 'Pharmacy' team in Germany's Bundesliga. However, Wirtz faced challenges adapting to English football and was unable to replicate his previous form, drawing criticism accordingly.
Wirtz's goal came against Wolverhampton Wanderers, who sit at the bottom of the table in 20th place, during the match on Saturday night. This marked his first Premier League goal, ending a wait of 17 matches, during which he had 21 goal-scoring opportunities and played about 1,000 minutes on the pitch.
