Florian Wirtz

Apparently Witz doesn't want to move before next summer's Euro's, as he doesn't want anything to hinder his place in the Germany squad.

If true. I suppose that's that for 12 months...
On the other hand, in the absence of Kev, he would probably start most games. I don't think we would pay 100m euros and bench him. I think he would get a very good amount of games. I do understand his logic, though. He had some serious injury problems last season, so it makes sense for him to stay put for now.

This is the selling point they would have to nail. Look we were coming for you in 2024, we have a Kev sized hole in the team waiting for you a year early
 
If we really want him and that fee they want of €100m we will pay it
Irrelevant what we want if Tolmie is correct and the lad isn't leaving.

Lets be honest, this is all setup for Wirtz to have a stormer of a tournament next summer in his own backyard and then join Bayern as is the usual pattern for all talent in Germany.

Kev will be back for 2024 & will be looking to cement his place in the Belgium squad. What the fuck for at his age & with his injury record, I've no idea, but if Wirtz prizes Euro 2024 above City right now, there's little we can do about it.

I'd see things differently if it were me, especially because I'd have to step up my game because of the increased competition in the PL & CL... But I'm a City fan innit? \0/

Which takes me back to what I suggested a few weeks back. We buy him now, & leave him on loan at Leverkusen for a season, or even two as part of the deal...
 
I would rather sign him next summer when he is more open to move rather than risk buying him now and loaning him back and picking up a major injury.
