It is not as if Bayern Munich has always landed its top transfer targets, but losing out to Liverpool FC on Bayer Leverkusen ace Florian Wirtz seems to have stung everyone at the club a bit. Bayern Munich president Herbert Hainer admitted that Max Eberl told him that a deal for Wirtz was likely not happening.

Talks with Liverpool manager Arne Slot are believed to have swayed Wirtz, who is now hopeful of continuing his career under the Dutchman. However, despite a personal agreement with Wirtz, the finances involved in such a deal means there is still plenty of work to do.
