Liverpool agree to pay £100m for Florian Wirtz as conditions needed to trigger £16m in add-ons revealed ahead of blockbuster transfer

<p>According to <a href="https://x.com/JacobsBen/status/1933451851061760390" target="_blank"><em>Ben Jacobs</em>,</a> the Reds have struck a deal with Leverkusen, agreeing to a base transfer fee of <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-brink-florian-wirtz-record-breaking-transfer-fresh-offer-bayer-leverkusen-eur150m/blt6da1e4af04b0b96a#cs2b0202f1615a1446" target="_blank">£100m (€118m/$136m), with a further £16m (€19m/$22m)</a> to follow in potential bonuses. The additional payments are believed to hinge on the club securing major honours during Wirtz’s time at Anfield, with the condition that the 22-year-old features regularly in the team.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>This eye-watering deal sees Liverpool eclipse Chelsea’s £115m purchase of Moises Caicedo, which had previously held the record for the highest transfer fee paid by a British club. Wirtz will become just the 10th footballer in history to be transferred for a fee north of £100m, placing him among an elite group of players such as Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, and Jude Bellingham.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Wirtz's composure, creativity, and tactical intelligence have seen him attract interest from elite clubs across the continent, including Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, and Manchester City. Despite this competition, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-sign-florian-wirtz-premier-league-champions-agree-150m-bayer-leverkusen-british-transfer-record/blta3c37cbf744d0d20#cs6198aeb55dc56917" target="_blank">Liverpool’s financial power and sporting project proved</a> to be decisive. Even Bundesliga powerhouses Bayern Munich were unable to compete with the comprehensive package Liverpool put on the table for the young German.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Personal terms had already been agreed between Liverpool and Wirtz over two weeks ago. The formal signing is expected to take place once the midfielder returns from his summer vacation.</p>
