INCREDIBLE Michael Edwards move will land Liverpool Florian Wirtz

Michael Edwards leads Florian Wirtz charge

Sport Bild reports that Edwards first got in contact with Wirtz for a transfer all the way back in 2020. The playmaker was still a youth player at Koln but would join Leverkusen that year.

Edwards refused to give up, however, and maintained contact and interest in Wirtz ever since. Anfield Watch understands Liverpool actually tried to sign the player from Leverkusen in January 2021, before he even had a full senior season under his belt.

That £50m offer was rejected, however, and Liverpool have been forced to wait for that opportunity. Edwards would leave Liverpool a year later but on his return to the fold in 2024, he rejuvenated the push for Wirtz.
