Liverpool have completed the signing of German superstar Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for a British record fee of £116million.

Mail Sport reported last week that an agreement had been reached by the Premier League champions and Leverkusen for the attacking midfielder.

The clubs agreed a base £100m fee for Wirtz, which could rise to £116m depending on bonuses including winning the Premier League and Champions League.

Wirtz went on holiday following international duty with Germany, but has since completed a medical to seal his move to Liverpool.
