In a recent conversation with Sky Sports, Liverpool's newly appointed manager Arne Slot shared his perspective on the development of a key talent: German international Florian Wirtz.

The Dutch coach offered his insights, shedding light on the midfielder's growing influence and the promising trajectory of his career.

When a player is signed for that kind of money, people tend to focus on goals and assists. But let me tell you, he could already have six or seven assists. Just watch the passes he delivers to his teammates, which, unfortunately, don’t always end up as goals. One of the best examples is his ball to Salah in the match against Chelsea. For Mo, chances like that end up as goals 99 times out of 100. Wirtz just hasn’t had the luck with finishing after his passes.
