Florian Wirtz tells fans 'don't believe everything' - and hits out at German press - as Liverpool prepare record bid for Bayer Leverkusen star

Florian Wirtz has urged fans to not 'believe everything' as negotiations continue over his proposed move to Liverpool.

Liverpool remain in negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen over a deal for Wirtz. Bayer want £120million and Liverpool are at £109m but Wirtz has made it clear he wants the move.

The Germany star has been convinced by Arne Slot’s clear plan of where he will play in Liverpool’s set-up as a No 10.

Should the Reds accede to Bayer's demands, Wirtz would become the most expensive signing in British football, overtaking the £115m Chelsea paid Brighton for Moises Caicedo.
