Florian Wirtz idolised Chelsea flop as Liverpool close in on £116m transfer
Incoming Liverpool star Florian Wirtz will have a lot of pressure to succeed after arriving as the most expensive Premier League player for £116.5m and his former ex-team-mates have been discussing when he burst onto the scene Florian Wirtz will be hoping to have a bigger impact on the Premier League in Liverpool red than his boyhood hero Marko Marin did wearing Chelsea blue. The champions' British record signing grew up idolising Marin when he first started showing his potential playing alongside older boys at Grun-Weiss Brauweiler, the junior club on the outskirts of Cologne where his dad Hans-Joachim acts as both the chairman and his youngest son's agent. When the Bosnia-born German international moved to Stamford Bridge from Werder Bremen in the summer of 2012 in a deal worth £6.5million, big things were expected of him. But he played just two Premier League starts for the Londoners and was loaned out to Sevilla, Fiorentina, Anderlecht and Trabzonspor before joining Olympiakos three years later. Marin was a hugely-talented attacking midfielder playing his best football with Bremen when Bundesliga rivals FC Koln launched a charm offensive to sign the precocious seven-year-old Wirtz in 2010. Club officials wanted to present him with a shirt bearing the name of his favourite player - and were stunned when the youngster name-checked Marin rather than Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi or German star Mesut Ozil. He still treasures the jersey. Liverpool have agreed a deal with Bayer Leverkusen that will see them pay £100million plus another £16million in add-ons to bring Wirtz to Anfield in a bid to improve a team that cruised to the title under Arne Slot in the Dutchman's first season. The 22-year-old is a team player who isn't afraid to push against the grain. Former team-mates at Brauweiler describe a personality who was always ready to sacrifice himself for the good of the collective. Benjamin Schwarz recalled: "Flo always gave his best for the team and always encouraged the other boys. Even at a young age that was very noticeable. He also always passed the ball to his team-mates even though he knew he was so much better than the rest of us." Bilal Ksiouar added: "When you played in the same team as Flo it was like you had one or two players more than the opposition. Even against older boys and better teams, he always stood out." Yet Wirtz caused a storm in the local area when he left Koln after 10 years in January 2020 to join Bayer Leverkusen. The two rivals had struck a pact not to poach each other's youth players, but Leverkusen felt that the outstanding promise being shown by the 16-year-old was something they just couldn't ignore. Rudi Voller, the legendary German striker who won the World Cup in 1990, was Leverkusen's technical director. He explained: "Failing to sign Wirtz at that age would have been negligent - and he was going to leave them when his contract expired that summer anyway." Wirtz continued his studies at his new club, getting top marks in advanced maths, advanced geography, German and biology. But within five months of moving to Leverkusen, at the age of just 17 years and 15 days, he made his Bundesliga debut against Werder Bremen and in doing so overtook Kai Havertz as the club's youngest-ever player. Even then he had a talent for producing the unexpected both on and off the pitch. Fans were shocked when he admitted that he always opted to play as rivals Bayern Munich during games of FIFA. And when asked who he admired most amongst his contemporaries, he named Joao Felix, the Portuguese striker who is now famous for being another big-money Chelsea misfit. "Joao Felix is a similar type of player to me," said Wirtz. "He's very creative and I learn a lot from him." Yet it was that same bloody-minded attitude that drove Wirtz into returning to fitness just 272 days after rupturing a cruciate ligament against old foes Koln in 2022, an injury that would force him to miss the World Cup. Club medics were constantly urging the midfielder to slow down, but Wirtz would turn up for rehabilitation sessions even when ordered to have a day off. With an attitude like that, he will fit straight in at Anfield. Join our new WhatsApp community and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.

Ashley Cole tips Tino Livramento for ‘beautiful future' after Newcastle star shines for England U21s
TINO LIVRAMENTO will have a 'beautiful future' for club and country, says England's greatest left-back Ashley Cole. The Newcastle star is aiming to cap off a campaign that saw him lift the Carabao Cup and qualify for the Champions League by becoming a European champion. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Tino Livramento produced a man of the match display in England U21s' win over Czech Republic Credit: Getty 4 Ashley Cole believes the star has a 'beautiful future' ahead of him with the Three Lions Credit: Getty Versatile Livramento has excelled at both right and left-back for the Magpies and was man of the match at the latter in the U21s' 3-1 Euro opening victory over Czech Republic on Thursday. Left-back has proven to be a problem position for England's seniors of late with eight players used there over the past year. Arsenal and Chelsea legend Cole won 107 caps for his country and is now Lee Carsley's U21s assistant manager. And he thinks England, who face Slovenia on Sunday in their second Group B clash, have struck gold with Livramento. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL GYO TIME Gyokeres decides between Man Utd and Arsenal as he 'rejects Premier League club' Cole, 44, said: 'I had the fortune to be around him when he was at Chelsea. He was in the 21s in the reserve group. You always see the passion and level he could get to. But of course, there's only a certain level of information we can give him. 'It's down to the players to take on that information, absorb it, and want to learn and listen and develop and get better. He's certainly one of them players. 'Him getting the opportunity at Newcastle and continuing to play first in football gave him the belief, the confidence in his own ability. And, of course, a manager that's trusted him to play at such a young age. He's developing into a top player.' Three-time Premier League and 2012 Champions League winner Cole continued: 'My job is to try and give all my experiences to every single player. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS 'You do favour certain players and certain attitudes. He's got a great attitude. He's a great person, always willing to listen. 'I try not to compare myself to these guys. The information and detail I give is, we're a different stature. We have a different style of play. And it's just trying to give him the basics of how to defend all areas of the pitch, and see how he develops.' Ashley Cole picks his all-time team-mates XI... but does it boast more Arsenal or Chelsea stars? 4 Ashley Cole and Tino Livramento in action at England training Credit: Getty Cole, who admits some of the magic is not there anymore, takes a hands-on approach to coaching. And after sharing a pitch with Livramento and working with him up close, he insists that the sky is the limit for the Toon ace. He said: 'I can't move anymore. My ankle is gone. I was probably the worst player last week when I joined in. 'I try to give that little bit of knowledge as I'm playing. I can't run anymore, so it's more of a gob – which I've calmed down a bit! – but it's still there. I try to give as much as I can. 'As coach, you stand on the sideline and see how much information he takes on and takes on board. And I keep saying it, but the willingness to want to learn and be the best, is always a great trait to have. I try not to compare myself to these guys. We have a different style of play. And it's just trying to give him the basics of how to defend all areas of the pitch, and see how he develops. Ashley Cole on Tino Livramento 'Whatever level he wants to get to, he can get to because he's got that personality and desire. 'He's got a beautiful future, a bright future. Long may it continue that he keeps playing for Newcastle, keeps gaining experience and keeps his levels up.' Eyebrows were raised when Thomas Tuchel left Livramento, who won his first senior cap in November, out of his latest squad in order for him to come to the Euros. But the ex-Southampton ace revealed a conversation he had with the German about being a leader for the U21s in Slovakia and he says he is loving soaking up all the knowledge from his hero Cole. Livramento said: 'Thomas spoke to me about the senior squad and said that he wanted to speak to Lee as well about giving me that role. 4 'I've never played a tournament for England and any age group. I've always missed it through injuries. That's a big thing for me, coming here and getting this experience and playing with loads of boys that I've come through the age groups with. 'Ashley gets involved in the sessions. Even just watching him, he's still at the highest level of the way he communicates with all the boys. As a coach he's a bit more laid back. 'He sees things, he lets you train and he might pull you to the side after and do a little bit of one-to-one work. 'Obviously as a Chelsea fan when I was younger seeing him and stuff like that is a big thing for me to learn.'
