Liverpool have spared no expense in their agreement with Florian Wirtz after details began to filter through, and when the Reds expect to seal the deal with Bayer Leverkusen has also come to light.

Premier League champions Liverpool have reportedly stolen a march on Bayern Munich in the race for Florian Wirtz. Here is how the Reds could use the Germany star.
