Arne Slot reportedly made a crucial late intervention to convince Florian Wirtz to snub Bayern Munich for Liverpool this summer.
The German attacker, 22, is one of the biggest names on the market in the upcoming transfer window with Liverpool going head to head with Bayern to tempt the Bayer Leverkusen star to join.
That came after Man City withdrew from the race over soaring fees and Bayern had remained as favourites, before Mail Sport reported last week that the Reds were edging ahead for the 22-year-old, who scored 16 goals and registered 15 assists this season.
