It’s not a signing, but if it happens, it would be a great ‘reinforcement’ for Bayer Leverkusen . According to German magazine Kicker, Florian Wirtz is about to renew his contract with the German champions.

Despite interest from several European clubs, the talented winger is expected to extend his contract with the pharmaceutical company until 2028, adding another year to his current contract.

Wirtz is one of Bayer ‘s main figures and, last season, which was historic at all levels for the club, with the Bundesliga and Cup win, he scored 18 goals and provided 19 assists in 49 games.

The 21-year-old has been at Leverkusen since 2019, when he switched from Cologne ‘s youth team to Bayer ‘s youth team . He made his debut for the first team that same year. In total, he has made 176 appearances, 52 goals and 54 assists for the club.
