Manchester City has encountered difficulties in securing the signing of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen due to a reported hefty asking price and new contract talks from Leverkusen. The 21-year-old playmaker is viewed as Kevin De Bruyne's successor, but CEO Fernando Carro indicated there's a 'very high probability' Wirtz will remain with the club, as he has a contract until 2026 and is happy at Leverkusen. City may need to consider alternative options to fill the gap left by De Bruyne after his impressive performance in a recent match against Crystal Palace.
Manchester City’s hopes of signing Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen seem dim, as Leverkusen plans to keep him, amidst interest from other top clubs.
Leverkusen's CEO emphasized there's a high chance Wirtz won't move this summer, as he has a contract until 2026 and feels good at the club.
