Florian Wirtz expected to join Real Madrid in summer 2025: Reports

The German youngster has been impressive in Bayer Leverkusen’s title win

In a major update, Florian Wirtz, a superstar for Germany and Bayer Leverkusen, is expected to join LaLiga giants Real Madrid in the summer of 2025, according to the German journal SportBILD.

The 21-year-old Wirtz is one of the most highly sought-after young players in European football after a string of impressive performances at Bayer Leverkusen in recent years.

The German wonderkid has been an integral part of Xabi Alonso’s squad, who are still undefeated in all competitions and took home the Bundesliga title this season.

Although there have been rumours regarding his future, it has been confirmed that Wirtz will remain with Die Werkself until 2025, when he will then go on to other projects.

According to earlier rumours, Florian Wirtz’s entourage believed that joining Bayern Munich in the summer of 2025 would be the best next step for him in his career before transferring overseas.

But according to SportBILD, Real Madrid are now Wirtz’s probable option when he departs Leverkusen in 2025.

Even if the two players have very different characteristics, the Merengues are huge admirers of the 21-year-old German international and consider him a contender to succeed seasoned superstar Toni Kroos, according to the source.

It’s also been speculated that Felipe Martin, one of Real Madrid‘s most important scouts and the man who scouted Jude Bellingham, has been chosen to observe Wirtz in every match he performs from the stands.

The fact that the Spanish capital club would take this action only suggests that they are serious about signing Wirtz and that he is a top goal on the team’s plan.
