The Bundesliga Club is probably required 126 million GBP, which would destroy the British transfer record.

This is currently held by Chelsea, who paid around £ 115 million for Moises Caicedo in 2023.

Personal conditions have already been agreed between the two parties, with the 22-year-old only looking at a move to Merseyside.

The preference of the German international has led to Manchester City and Bayern Munich accepted a defeat in their persecution, whereby only Liverpool was used at the table to secure his services.

While Leverkusen is ready to sell Wirtz early in the window, they would be open so that two Liverpool stars can be recorded in a future offer.

And the two identified, the midfielder Harvey Elliott and the central defender Jarell Quansah attack.

Both men spent their career in Liverpool so far that Elliott in the 2024/25 season only 18 Premier League appearances for the champions-only twice in the leader.

As for the Academy graduate Quansah, he only gathered 13 excursions in the leader, with four of his appearances in Arne Slots Start-Xi.

The Reds have already signed the signature of Wirts Ex-Leverkusen teammate Jeremie Frimpong after activating his release clause of £ 29.5 million.

The Slot side moved quickly to sign the Dutch full-back after losing Trent Alexander-Arnold against Real Madrid.

In the meantime, they are also close to a contract for the 45 million pound left-back Milos Kerkez in Bournemouth.

Liverpool could make a change for the Newcastle Wing player Anthony Gordon if you separate from Luis Diaz in Barcelona or Al Nassr this summer, although talk sport understands that the red are interested in keeping the Colombian striker.

The backup goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher left the club after 67 appearances were distributed in six campaigns.

Brentford has concluded a contract for £ 18 million in order to sign it as a replacement for Mark Flekken, who has joined Leverkusen.

This was very satisfied with a club with Ringmahon Rangers, which entered a sales fee that may have a value of around £ 2 million worth £ 2.

And club secretary Sean Fitzgerald said exclusively to Talksport.com: “There are money everywhere. There are numbers that are thrown out. Jesus Christ, we buy all types.

“Nobody knows what we still get because we still don’t know the deal between Liverpool and Brentford. We won’t know that for a while. We are now least of Liverpools because they are still trying to sign players.

“If it happens when it comes, we have as massive facilities as it is. We have great facilities here, but our next plan will be an astro-pitch in full size.

“After that, the money will only be put into the bank, and it will be there for the club for the next 100 years.

“It will be there for my children. It will be there for their children. It will be there for the children afterwards. It is a life -changing money for us, especially for a club of our size, for our community and for the place where we live.”
