Florian Wirtz
22-Year-Old
Liverpool
Premier
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Wirtz was a target for all of Europe's elite throughout the summer transfer window but eventually landed with the Premier League champions. He's a sublime creator and finisher, tallying 21 goals and 23 assists across the past two Bundesliga seasons, while creating 131 chances with a minimal role on set pieces. His arrival should immediately push Dominik Szoboszlai back into his more natural role as a box-to-box midfielder, with Wirtz the unquestioned starting attacking midfielder. Wirtz should take on some kind of set-piece role, though it's unlikely to be a major one. The sky is the limit for Wirtz in his first season in the Premier League, with the potential for him to be one of the most productive players from a goal contribution standpoint.
Assists for opener
Wirtz assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-0 win over Fulham.
ANALYSIS
Wirtz provided one assist for the opening goal during Saturday's win, setting up youngster Rio Ngumoha with a nice ball to open the scoring. The attacking midfielder got off to a slow start with Liverpool, but he's been excellent of late and is continuing to improve. With a more consistent system, Wirtz could be a lethal attacking option moving forward.

Late call against Wolves
Wirtz (back) will be a late fitness call for Friday's FA Cup clash against Wolves, according to coach Arne Slot. "He trained half and half yesterday with the team. What I mean with that is he was a 'joker', you say over here I think, so he made the next step in his rehab. So, let's see where he is today and if he then could be available for a few - a few - minutes tomorrow, in the best scenario."

Out Tuesday, hopeful next week
Wirtz (back) is ruled out for Tuesday's Premier League clash against Wolves and could miss Friday's FA Cup play against them as well, coach Arne Slot said in the press conference. "Not anything different than what I said after the game [on Saturday]. The game tomorrow will probably come too soon and maybe the game at the weekend as well. Let's see how that ends up. But we hope to have him back somewhere next week. Maybe earlier. Maybe a bit later. But that timescale."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could head to Real Madrid
Real Madrid could attempt to sign Wirtz in the summer, according to TEAMTalk.
ANALYSIS
While Wirtz has adjusted to life at Liverpool and has been a regular starter when healthy, he hasn't been as good as many expected him to be after his impressive two seasons at Leverkusen. Real Madrid have been keeping close tabs on him since he was a youngster, and they could take advantage of his subpar season with the Reds to sign him next summer. Liverpool would probably ask for a nine-figure transfer fee to get a deal done, though.
