'I wanted to join a club that...': Liverpool's record signing Florian Wirtz reveals why he is thrilled to join the Reds
Milos Kerkez and Florian Wirtz are thrilled about joining Liverpool, with the Reds aiming to defend their Premier League title in the 2025/26 season. Here are some of their thoughts as they get ready to play for Liverpool. After winning the Premier League title in 2024/25, champions have made significant signings in the summer transfer window, making a statement to their rivals that they are no longer the same frugal entity that used to refrain from splashing big money on players. As of now, the Reds have spent over £250 million in the summer transfer window and have acquired the services of eight exciting players. Two of them are Milos Karkez and Florian Wirtz. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Liverpool broke the bank to sign midfielder Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen and made a club record by spending £116 million on the player. They got Milos Kerkez at £40 million from Bournemouth. Both players are proven and are expected to enhance Liverpool's capabilities multifold. More from Football Florian Wirtz and Milos Kerkez thrilled to join Liverpool Ahead of the start of the new season, both players engaged in a preview session with JioHotstar and shared their excitement about joining the club. 'I'm thrilled. It's an honour and a privilege to play for one of the biggest clubs in the world — the biggest in England. I'm truly delighted and excited for the journey ahead.' Kerkez, who will have the duty to fill the big shoes of Trent Alexander-Arnold at the club, said. The attention then moved to Florian Wirtz, who revealed why he chose Anfield as his next destination. 'I wanted to join a club that I consider among the top three in the world, and for me, Liverpool was one of them. I was really impressed by the people here. The vision they presented, and everything the club had to offer. In the end, deciding to come to Liverpool was an easy choice.' Stephen Warnock pays tribute to Diogo Jota Former Liverpool player Stephen Warnock was also a part of the segment. Warnock honoured the late Diogo Jota's legacy and praised the club for retiring his No. 20 shirt. He discussed what the new signings will bring to the table, as Warnock also expressed confidence in Mohamed Salah's ability to continue delivering goals, citing his hunger and desire as key factors in his success. 'When you think of Diogo Jota, the constant smile he played with is exactly what you want to see from footballers — someone who truly enjoyed every day on the pitch. He never took his football for granted, especially being at Liverpool. Jota understood the struggles he overcame since childhood to reach the very top, and he genuinely appreciated the career he was given. That showed in every single game he played,' he said. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'The 'Forever 20' will appear on Liverpool's shirts, with the club retiring the number as well. This leaves a legacy — it was an incredible gesture from Liverpool Football Club, and the decision has been echoed globally as the right thing to do.' 'What was absolutely vital for Liverpool, knowing they would be without Trent Alexander-Arnold, was figuring out how to replace that creativity. Yes, he is a right-back, but he so often steps into midfield—sometimes a match is flat, and he's the one who unlocks it with a killer pass or a moment of vision. You need more players like that. With his absence, you recreate that by bringing in someone higher up the pitch who can provide that kind of spark. Frimpong coming in at right-back—I don't see it as just a traditional right-back role, but more of a utility position. And with Kerkez on the left, I've watched him for a couple of years and believe he's the ideal Liverpool type of player.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD 'There will always be questions about whether he can maintain his performance at his age, and if he still has the hunger and desire. But you can already see that he absolutely does. That hunger and desire are what make him elite—one of the best players in world football. No matter how wealthy he is, how well he's paid, or how well he's looked after, it's about delivering week after week. I believe he'll be back and scoring a hat-trick of goals again.' Catch all the action from the Premier League 2025-26 season, August 16 onwards, LIVE & Exclusive on Star Sports Network and JioHotstar.

Liverpool Splash Out To Secure Status As Premier League's Top Dogs
Fresh from storming to a record-equalling 19th English top-flight title, Liverpool have not held back in transforming Arne Slot's squad in pursuit of an era of Premier League dominance. On top of retaining veteran stars Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah to new contracts, the Reds have splashed out 260 million pounds ($350 million) and are reportedly far from finished in the transfer market. Two of the Bundesliga's most promising talents Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike have arrived at Anfield to add extra creativity and goals. Jeremie Frimpong has also made the move from Germany with the daunting task of replacing Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back, while Milos Kerkez joined from Bournemouth as the long-term successor to Andy Robertson at left-back. More defensive reinforcements are imminent with the club closing in on deals for Crystal Palace captain Marc Guehi and 18-year-old Italian centre-back Giovanni Leoni from Parma. But it is the potential addition of Newcastle striker Alexander Isak for a British transfer record fee in excess of 115 million pounds that is the transfer saga of the English summer. Risky and rare strategy Liverpool were among the lowest Premier League spenders last year as Slot oversaw a steady transition from Jurgen Klopp in spectacular style. A huge investment this time round is also possible because the Reds are among the slickest movers in the market when it comes to sales. The departures of Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Jarell Quansah, Caoimhin Kelleher, Alexander-Arnold and Tyler Morton have raised around 200 million pounds. Liverpool's bold strategy of tearing up a title-winning team is a risky and rare experiment. Only once, Manchester City in 2019, have the Premier League champions been the biggest spending English club in the market since 2007. After years of battling against the financial power of Abu Dhabi-backed City, Liverpool are now flexing their muscles thanks to years of commercial growth and prudent ownership. "It doesn't feel Liverpool-like to me," said former defender Jamie Carragher at the thought of a new 69 million pounds striker Ekitike playing second fiddle to Isak. After decades in the doldrums prior to Klopp's arrival, Liverpool are aiming to bring back glory days the club has not since the 1980s. The last time Liverpool won back-to-back titles was in 1984 and doing so this season would come with the added bonus of overtaking Manchester United as English football's top dogs. To do so, Slot has recognised the need to strike the right balance that still harnesses the best from his side's extra firepower. A pre-season trend of high-scoring encounters continued in losing the Community Shield to Crystal Palace on penalties after twice blowing the lead. "Now we are better in creating and getting promising situations than we were, in my opinion, throughout the whole of last season," said Slot. "What made us really strong last season was we only won mostly by a margin of one goal and that had mostly to do with us keeping a clean sheet or as a maximum conceding one goal." Liverpool also have extra motivation to defend their title as they try to honour a lost friend and team-mate in Diogo Jota. The Portuguese international was killed aged just 28 alongside his brother after a car accident in northern Spain last month. Tributes to Jota will continue throughout the season with "Forever 20" -- his shirt number, which the club have now retired -- printed on Liverpool's jerseys.
