200,000 in and 150 million out! Leverkusen earns a profit of Wilz trade

TuBoth Network, June 11th, well-known transfer expert Romano announced with the iconic "HERE WE GO" that German genius Florian Werz officially joined Premier League giant Liverpool, with a total transfer fee of up to 150 million euros. This news instantly shocked the football world.

Back to January 31, 2020, Werz, who was only 17 years old, switched from Cologne U17 to Leverkusen U19 for 200,000 euros, opening a new chapter in his career. In the summer of the same year, he successfully advanced to the first team of Leverkusen. During his five years at Leverkusen, Wilz grew to be the core of the team, representing the team 197 times, scoring 57 goals and assisting 65 times. He has comprehensive skills, accurate passes, sharp breakthroughs, and is extremely creative on the offensive end. In 2024, he helped the team to the Bundesliga unbeaten, won the German Cup and German Super Cup championships, and his personal value soared to 140 million euros.

For this transfer, a transfer fee of 150 million euros will set multiple records. It not only set a record for Liverpool's history of signings (previously maintained by Nunes's 85 million euros), but also surpassed Enzo's 121 million euros, becoming the most expensive record for Premier League teams' signings, and also breaking the record for the most expensive transfer in the history of the Bundesliga. According to German Sports Pictures, 140 million euros in the transfer fee are fixed fees and relatively easy to achieve floating bonuses. The remaining 10 million euros will only be realized if Wilz wins the Golden Ball Award, the World Footballer or the Champions League champion.

For Liverpool, Wiltz's joining will greatly enhance the strength of the midfield and frontcourt. In the new season, under the coach's tactical system, he is expected to have a good chemical reaction with his teammates and help the team compete for the Premier League and Champions League trophy. For Wilz, embarking on the fiercely competitive Premier League are not only a major challenge in his career, but also a rare opportunity to reach a new height. Fans are eagerly looking forward to his wonderful performance at Anfield Stadium.
