Wirtz (ankle) could return to competition earlier than expected after feeling good with his ankle, coach Xabi Alonso said in the press conference. "I talked with Flo. He feels better. He's close, he needs a little more time, but maybe he'll be back sooner than expected. His ankle feels good, and that's positive. We don't want to be conservative with Flo, we want to go full throttle and take a little risk. If he can play a little earlier, we'll take that risk. We can be optimistic that he'll return sooner than expected."
ANALYSIS
Wirtz suffered a ligament injury to his right ankle in the game against Bremen but is recovering well and feeling good. He could return to the pitch earlier than expected, likely at the beginning of next month. Until then, Amine Adli and Exequiel Palacios, in more advanced role in the frontline, have seen increased playing time.

Priority for Bayern Munich
F/MBayer Leverkusen
GTD
March 17, 2025
Wirtz is a priority target for Bayern Munich ahead of the summer transfer window, according to Florian Plettenberg of Sky Sports.
ANALYSIS
Wirtz is dealing with an injury and is uncertain when he'll return to action, but the injury shouldn't impact him on a long-term basis. Wirtz is widely expected to leave the club in the summer and fetch Leverkusen a nine-figure transfer fee in return. Bayern are believed to be leading the race for the star playmaker, but Manchester City are also keen on signing him.
