The main character is German next-generation ace Florian Birtz.
Liverpool agreed with German buyer Leverkusen on the transfer of Florian Würz on the 21st (Korea time). Birtz signed a long-term contract after successfully passing medical tests, the release said.
It did not officially announce specific conditions. The BBC predicted '5 years of contract period and transfer fee is about £116 million (about KRW 215 billion).'
It is the highest transfer fee in Liverpool history and the highest transfer fee in EPL.
Liverpool paid a transfer fee of £75 million when they acquired Dutch national defender and world-class centre-back Van Dijk from Southampton (England) in 2018. It was the previous club's highest transfer fee.
Chelsea's £115 million payment to Moises Caicedo in 2023 was the highest existing EPL transfer fee.
Würz is the next best offensive midfielder that the world's soccer community is paying attention to.
