Rewinding to last summer, Florian Wirtz transferred from "The Pharmacy" Bayer Leverkusen, a top Bundesliga German club, to Anfield for a fee of £116 million (around 4.87 billion baht), signing a contract until 2030. Initially, his performance was disappointing, with no goals or assists, leading to a period where he was dropped to the bench. However, recently he has consistently elevated his excellent form.
Most recently, Ryan Gravenberch said about Florian Wirtz, "You can clearly see the quality he possesses. He needed time to adapt, but now you can see what he brings to the team. He scores goals, provides assists, and creates many opportunities for his teammates. He really is a special player."
