Florian Wirtz is closing in on a move to Liverpool after rejecting Bayern Munich and the transfer has been called a "real shame" for the Bundesliga by Hans-Joachim Watzke

According to Fabrizio Romano, via Give Me Sport, Ekitike has not given a final decision to anyone and is said to be keeping his options open. A proposed deal is reported to be likely to be extremely expensive for the club who succeeds in buying the 22-year-old.

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