Bayer Leverkusen -star Florian Wirtz voted a deal in the summer of 2025 about a possible transfer to Bayern Munich, according to German news Outlet Bild. The German talent has decided to become a member of Bayern Munich if the two clubs reach an agreement in the coming weeks, because Bayer Leverkusen is forced to make a decision about his future with the current contract that expires in the summer of 2027. He will leave the club at the end of the season, and he will become a member of Real Madrid where he will probably replace Carlo Ancelotti. Although the decision of Xabi Alonso is now official, it is still not clear what will happen in the summer with some players, and whether his exit could ask them to decide that this is the right time to make a change in their career.

Even if the player’s decision seems quiet, according to the German journalist and Bayern Munich Insider Christian Falk, the real problem that is between the two clubs will have to decide because Bayer Leverkusen still has to decide what to do in the summer with their most important players. In recent years, the German side has pushed back against all the offers that have arrived at the club to sign Wirtz, especially when they grew into a fever in the summer of 2022 and again two years later, because the same player always insisted that he did not want to leave his beloved club. After the end of the spell of the Xabi Alonso in the club, however, things can change drastically for both Wirtz and Bayer Leverkusen. Now the ball is at the court of the team and they will have to make a decision about the future of their best player. According to the report, Bayern Munich is also willing to offer around € 100 million to sign Wirtz, but will that be sufficient for Leverkusen?

In the event that Bayer Leverkusen will forcing their hand and Wirtz will hold for another season, Bayern Munich may wait another year, with the risk of signing the player after the FIFA 2026 World Cup, where Wirtz will be one of the faces of the national team that is managed by the former Bayern, Bayernchen. Wirtz’s decision, if confirmed, will also influence the summer plans of other European clubs such as Manchester City and Chelsea, which were considered in the race to sign the German gem. And although they are not completely out of it, like Leverkusen -Manager said On Friday: “Florian Wirtz did not tell me that he only wants to go to Bayern,” Wirtz will certainly make Germany more likely.

Bayern Munich are now the leaders to sign Wirtz in the summer of 2024, but it is now Bayer Leverkusen who have to make the last call. A new summer transferaaga is about to start.
