It is not a secret for anybody that Florian Wirtz always has been in the list of players that the FC Barcelona has aspired to fichar. Since it appeared in the Bayer Leverkusen, his irruption has been impossible to measure and, much less, to brake. It is being the big protagonist of the team directed by Xabi Alonso and one of the managers that they are leading the Bundesliga, above the Bayern of Munich.
The footballer has flirted in several opportunities with the idea to play in the City Condal. In 2022 it aimed that "I always wanted to be the best, of boy dreamed with playing in the Barça and this has not changed", that "had some posters hanged in the room, as the ones of Leo Messi, Dembélé or Aubameyang" and that his "first T-shirt was the one of Messi with Argentina. When it was small he was the best player, anybody could play like him". They have been a lot of the 'winks' that has left on the possibility to get dressed of Barcelona and is a dream that, without place to doubts, has of face to the future.
The factors that 'prejudice' to the Barça
However, every time it is more remote the possibility that it arrive, for example, in the summer of 2024 by several factors. The first is that, while it was recovering of his break of ligaments, the Leverkusen renewed his agreement until 30 June 2027 to turn into him a player intocable and move away to the possible interested in his traspaso. The germanos trust fully in him and see him like the leader to short, average and long term. it is showing It In this course, with five goals and eight assistances in 13 parties.
The second factor that complicates the option for the Barça is that his value of market of has elevated considerably. To day of today, is impossible that leave him go out of the BayArena by less than one hundred million euros, as little. It is an inaccessible figure for the Catalans, in any case. Although the forecast is that they will be able to fichar with normality in 2024, seems unlikely that can do an investment of that calibrate, especially when there will be 'bidding' by him.
Overwhelming competition by Wirtz
This carries directly to the third factor. In addition to the Barça, there are other clubs that also are very interested in his incorporation and that, without place to doubts, have an economy much more saneada that it would allow them bet by his incorporation. It is the case of a Bayern of Munich that already is him suffering in the Bundesliga and that is in capacities to disburse 100 million euros, to the equal that teams like the Manchester City or the Real Madrid, that is very attentive to his exert in the Leverkusen.
