Florian Wirtz reaches verbal agreement with Bayern Munich amid Manchester City interest
Bayern Munich are long-term admirers of the German international with their pursuit counted in months and years, not weeks. This could be the summer that they finally get their man. Foot Mercato understands that Wirtz has reached a verbal agreement on personal terms with the Bavarian club. German media have already reported that the attacking midfielder has opted to leave Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the season. However, for now, there is not yet an agreement between Bayern Munich and Bayer Leverkusen.

Bayer are still trying to extend Wirtz's contract; his current deal runs until 2027. However, there is a strong likelihood of a departure, either to Bayern Munich or elsewhere. Manchester City and Real Madrid are still trying to convince the player of a move with the former reportedly open to spending over €100m on the German.

Liverpool finalise move to replace Andy Robertson
Liverpool know that they are likely to only have one more year of at the club. The Scottish left-back's contract expires next season and the signing of Milos Kerkez this summer has signified a more low-profile role for him in the upcoming campaign. He's being phased out. LFC x New Era Shop Now LFC Signed Merch Shop Now LFC x Titleist Shop Now Next summer, a replacement will need to be brought in and finding someone to play as Kerkez's understudy is going to be a little bit tricky, since most signings are adamant about their playing time. But the Reds might already have a solution in mind and plans are being put in place for the operation to replace Robertson to be seamless, when the time comes. An exceptional talent waits in the wings. Liverpool agree new contract for confirmed loanee One player who has been desperate for his chance in a Red shirt is Owen Beck, who has been on four different loan moves throughout his career - Famalicao, Bolton, Dundee and Blackburn. Each time, he has come back to the club as a far more developed player and the opportunity to bring him into the first-team has been considered, but nothing has really managed to come to fruition. However, his latest loan spell is going to be at Derby County, as confirmed by Liverpool earlier on Friday afternoon, and it follows the successful agreement of a new long-term deal with the Reds. So what does this mean? Well, the 22-year-old is clearly rated incredibly highly and letting his deal until 2026 expire was not considered an option for the club. His future is going to be incredibly bright and once he returns to Liverpool next season, after a spell at Derby, he might finally get his wishes.
