Florian Wirtz to FC Bayern? What is a dream for Uli Hoeneß, Leverkusen’s Boss Carro wrestles only a tired smile. He reacted meaningfully.
When asked about this, Carro countered at the Spobis Sportbusiness Conference with a smug smile: “I am happy when Uli H. dreams.” In addition, the Bayer boss was taciturn.
“I have nothing to say about that. These are dreams of him, not from me,” Carro pushed. Since Hoeneß’s “Taum” statement from Hoeneß, speculation has been shooting into the herb, according to which a possible transfer by Wirtz by Bavaria is targeted.
“We don’t always just want to talk about individual players. But of course Florian Wirtz is always an issue because he is an outstanding good player. We all know and see that,” said sports director Christoph Freund on Thursday at a press conference.
“Dreaming is always allowed. He is certainly one of the best German players. But it is always about the entire team and about what can be implemented,” the Austrian continued.
Wirtz has a contract with Master Leverkusen until 2027. According to “Transfermark.de”, its market value should be 140 million euros. The “kicker” recently reported that an early extension of the contract in Leverkusen von Wirtz had already been decided and carried out by at least one year.
According to T-online information, this does not apply. Leverkusen also denied the report. If there was soon an extension of the contract, this would not necessarily mean that Wirtz would be out of reach for Bavaria. The details would be crucial. A possible exit clause could even play in the cards to Munich.
