Liverpool are pushing to complete the signing of record-breaking arrival Florian Wirtz, and have pencilled in a medical for the German international.

Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl has hit back at his own player, Joshua Kimmich, over comments he made about Florian Wirtz 's impending transfer to Liverpool. The 22-year-old made his preference of the English champions over the German heavyweights clear - paving the way for a £116m agreement.

Liverpool has agreed to pay a transfer fee of 116 million pounds ($157 million) for attacking midfielder Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen.
