FLORIAN WIRTZ reportedly chose Liverpool over Bayern Munich after being given an irresistible promise by Arne Slot.
The highly-rated German star was courted by both clubs but in the end the guarantee of the No10 role tipped the scales in the Reds’ favour.
According to Caughtoffside, Wirtz revealed that the decision was ultimately made after Slot assured him he would be THE playmaker in his Liverpool team.
While Bayern offered him the prospect of competing in their world-class side, the path to regular first-team football was far from clear.
Jamal Musiala’s rapid rise at the Allianz Arena and the presence of more established players such as Joshua Kimmich meant that Wirtz would have had to fight for his place in the midfield.
But at Liverpool, it is a different story – he would be the main man at Anfield.
The creative hub of the team, controlling the game from midfield and leading Liverpool’s attack.
Slot promised Wirtz full control of the No10 role, a position that would be his alone.
This clear-cut offer of a starring role was a far cry from the uncertainty Bayern offered.
In the end Wirtz made his choice opting for the chance to be Liverpool’s attacking leader.
