The German magazine “Sport Bild” revealed that Spanish Real Madrid is seeking to sign the brilliant young man Florian Wirtz in the summer of 2025, to replace Toni Kroos.
The Bayer Leverkusen midfielder played a key role in the team’s achievements this season, most notably winning the German League title and reaching the European League final.
“Sport Bild” explained that several clubs have expressed interest in the 21-year-old player, such as Arsenal and Manchester City in England, Bayern Munich in Germany and Real Madrid.
However, the magazine adds that Wirtz wants to continue with his team for another year and play in the 2024 European Championship with Germany, then have his first experience in the Champions League, before taking the next step.
“Contracting the young player will require no less than 150 million euros, and Wirtz also wants to move to a team that is considered one of the favorites to win the biggest titles every season,” according to “Sport Bild.”
Real Madrid officials feel that Wirtz can replace fellow German international Kroos, who will be 35 years old by then.
Kroos’s contract with Real Madrid expires in a few weeks, but he said earlier that he intends to renew his contract with the Royal Club.
