Liverpool, the Premier League champion, agreed to a deal worth £ 116 million to sign Germany, which is attacking midfielder Florian and Witz from Bayer Leverkusen.
The fees include 100 million pounds guaranteed and an additional 16 million pounds.
These reward payments will become due if REDS has a continuous level of elite success – and they will only become a British record.
The British record remains for a preliminary fee for Chelsea's signing of 107 million pounds on the Argentina midfielder Inzo Fernandez from Benfica in 2023.
Chelsea also brought in Brighton midfielder Moisis Kaisoto for a preliminary fee of 100 million pounds, which may rise to 115 million pounds.
Manchester City was keen on Wirtz before cooling their attention due to the costs involved in the deal, while Bayern Munich was also linked to it.
Wirtz first appeared with Leverkusen at the age of 17, scoring 57 goals in 197 club games, and helped them win the Bundesliga for the first time in 2024.
He scored seven goals in 31 games for Germany since his international appearance in 2021.
Wirtz is scheduled to become the second player that Liverpool bought from Bayer Leverkusen this summer, as Jeremie Frimpong has arrived in a deal worth 34 million pounds.
The RDS team also took a step to the left back of Bournemouth, Milos Kirkrak, with talks about 45 million pounds to 50 million pounds.
Liverpool, after winning the Premier League title in the Premier League 2024-25 in the first season of the manager ARNE Slot, sought to strengthen their team – and it is believed that the level of their expenses has helped it reduce their spending in previous transport windows.
Last summer, they only added the Italian wing Federico Cisa, which was purchased for 12.5 million pounds from Juventus, while Georgia Giorgi Mamarashille from Valencia was signed in a deal worth 29 million pounds, which will include joining him before the start of the next season.
