A top German source has detailed which club are expected to win the race to sign Florian Wirtz with Liverpool, Manchester City and Bayern Munich all on the brink of tabling bids.

Bayern Munich honorary president Uli Hoeness has spoken about the ongoing transfer saga involving Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz. Wirtz, 22, is set to be one of the most sought-after players when the summer transfer window opens. The German has played a key role in the Leverkusen team under Xabi Alonso in recent years.

Florian Wirtz’s family was surprised and a bit irritated by the reports that came from Munich last week stating that the player reached an agreement with Bayern and signed a pre-contract agreement.
