Florian Wirtz confirms excitement at joining Liverpool with subtle gesture
Florian Wirtz seemingly confirmed his excitement at potentially joining Liverpool during the summer transfer window. The club already has had two offers for the Bayer Leverkusen star declined, with a third seemingly holding the magic number enough to entice the German side to a transfer. That said, the Reds have continued their pursuit of the 22-year-old, with the star set to be the club's third-highest paid player behind Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk, if Leverkusen accepts the third offer. Advertisement As time ticks off away and Wirtz' status becomes clearer, the star himself seemingly has made his feelings on joining the Premier League-winning club known. READ MORE: Liverpool's Alexis Mac Allister says his current situation 'infuriates me' READ MORE: Liverpool makes Luis Diaz transfer stance clear amid Barcelona and Saudi links While he walked with his fellow German teammates, Wirtz was asked by Daily Mail Sport's Lewis Steele if he was "excited" to join Liverpool. Not breaking his stride, the star looked over, gave a subtle head nod upon hearing the question, seemingly making clear his intentions. For Wirtz to don Liverpool's kit, it is being reported that the 22-year-old could fetch up to €150 million ($171 million) just to get him at Anfield. Only Neymar and Kylian Mbappe have changed clubs for bigger transfer fees in the past, showing how highly the Reds view the German star. Advertisement Regardless of the number that ultimately lands Wirtz in a Liverpool shirt, the youngster has made it clear in the past that money is not a motivating factor for him. He made that point during an interview with Sports Illustrated earlier this year.

"Of course, you should make sure you get a good contract. But for me, the sporting perspective is much more important than the money. "And I think my parents would be angry if I were too fixated on money. After I moved to Leverkusen at 16, my parents managed my salary and sent me 150 euros (£126) a month.

In particular, Garcia spoke highly of his teammate's abilities and was effusive in his praise for Wirtz. 'I spent a year with him, and I think he's dazzling. He has superior quality and is a game-changer. He's also driven to improve every day and always be the best. He's surprised and impressed me. Advertisement 'He's definitely in the top 10 in the world. I don't know if he's in the top five, but he's definitely in the top 10. He has spectacular talent and a hunger to keep improving.' Garcia added: "I think he'll go to England and make a difference. I wish him the best of luck because, apart from being a star, he's a very good guy.' Wirtz also has dismissed any notion that he was eyeing Alexis Mac Allister's No. 10 shirt. In a social media post, the youngster wrote: "Who says I want the 10? I respect players. Don't believe everything that's written."
