Real Madrid continues to look for young talent to secure its future and strengthen its squad. The club has already acquired promising young players this summer, but the recruitment teams led by Florentino Perez continue to hunt for young stars from the European market. According to information provided by Sport Media, the player of particular interest to the Madrid board is Florian Wirtz.
Florian Wirtz, 20, plays as an attacking midfielder at Bayer Leverkusen and is regarded as one of the most promising young talents in Europe. Last season he shone under former football star Xabi Alonso, scoring 4 goals and providing 8 assists in 25 matches. He also scored in the first Bundesliga game of this season.
Catalan media report that Real Madrid see Florian Wirtz as a viable solution to bolster their squad from next summer. The young German is seen as an ideal choice to strengthen Real Madrid’s midfield in 2024, as the expected departures of players such as Toni Kroos and Luka Modric could necessitate new signings.
