Goals

Florian Richard Wirtz is arguably one of the most talented football players in the world today at the young age of 22. His stellar performances for Bayer Leverkusen under the management of Xabi Alonso were rewarded, with him being named Bundesliga Player of the Month twice [December (2024), January (2025)] during the 2024–25 season. The attacking midfielder scored 16 goals and made 15 assists in his last season with Bayer Leverkusen.

Florian's string of brilliant performances helped his team finish second behind Bayern Munich. His forward play has proved to be fruitful, and his partnership with striking partner Patrick Schick has been formidable for the opposing defenders. His talent on the pitch has created quite a buzz and generated interest from clubs like Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, and Manchester City. However, the German international had his heart set on playing at Anfield. His dream finally came true in the summer of 2025 as Wirtz switched to Liverpool, with a transfer fee of £116 million. The deal includes £100M guaranteed plus £16 million add-ons to complete this move.

Florian Wirtz Family and Early Life

Florian Wirtz was raised in a family of footballers in Brauweiler, Pulheim, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. His father, Hans-Joachim Wirtz, played in the lower leagues of German football and later became chairman of SV Grün-Weiß Brauweiler, the same club that Florian played for as a youth.

Hans-Joachim and Karin Wirtz (his mother) both act as agents to Florian as they manage and oversee his career. Florian has an older sister, Juliane Wirtz, who is a professional footballer as well. Juliane played for Bayer Leverkusen from 2018-2023 before moving to Werder Bremen in the summer of 2023. Juliane is a midfielder and has represented all levels of the German national women's team. The siblings supported each other's development growing up, with a household focused on discipline, training, and teamwork. Their parents' involvement in their careers has been a huge factor in keeping them grounded and focused. Having that strong familial link to football has allowed Florian to develop maturity above his age.

Florian Wirtz net worth is around €10 million. Wirtz's assets come from a combination of his Bayer Leverkusen salary, performance bonuses, and an increase in endorsement income. The Balmoral talent's contract was set to run until 2027, and he supposedly earned around €4.5 million gross per year. Wirtz's net worth will be augmented by sponsorships with major companies like Adidas and Pepsi that accompany Wirtz's increasing visibility globally. Even now, Wirtz's move to Liverpool, which broke the transfer record, promises to significantly increase Wirtz's income given the greater salary to be earned, the possibility of bonuses, and increased marketability. As a professional player in the Premier League who has demonstrated that he can compete at the highest level in world football, his brand value and contributions from off-field realms will grow quickly. All signs point to rapid increases in Wirtz's net worth in the coming years.

In the summer of 2025, Wirtz's career moved in a new and different direction as he made a record-breaking £116.5 million transfer to one of the biggest clubs, Liverpool. That transfer was widely regarded as one of the biggest deals in Bundesliga history. At Liverpool, Wirtz was handed a five-year contract with lucrative wages. His base wages are £195,000 a week, which would make him one of the biggest earners at the football club.

Florian Wirtz Playing Style and Strengths

Florian Wirtz Playing Style and Strengths

Florian Wirtz is mostly a right-footed midfielder known for his vision, intelligence, and creativity in the final third. But he is revered for the calmness and effectiveness with which he receives the ball under pressure. He magnetically draws in defenders, attracting 2-3 defenders to release the perfect pass. Wirtz typically finds himself situated in the left half-space, where he targets spaces between the opposition's midfield and defensive lines. This small deviation from simply receiving the ball in the middle of the pitch affords him time to scan the pitch to find a dangerous ball to break defensive shape. In the 2023-24 season, Wirtz accumulated the most intelligent, or smart, passes in the league at 62 passes, helping to emphasize just how much he can unlock tight defenses with his precise deliveries! Wirtz is not just a volume passer of the ball, but a passer who plays high-quality, purposeful passes into the action of the game that create direct opportunities to score. Coupled with his technical ability is impeccable decision-making, making Wirtz a true puzzle piece in transition and build-up. He is the type of player who is always thinking a step ahead to not only read the game before others, but also to dictate the rhythm of the game.

Florian Wirtz Girlfriend

Although the talented German midfielder often remains private when it comes to his personal life, his fans and various media sources have gotten a few details about his dating history. Florian Writz girlfriend is Aaliyah Mohamed, a social media influencer known for her outgoing persona. Both Wirtz and Aaliyah aren't really the type of couple that shares every aspect of their lives with the public, but they like to spend time in public together. The couple can often be seen together at games, and Aaliyah's support for Wirtz is evident with her frequent participation when Wirtz plays. Sometimes Wirtz might need to look in the stands for other reasons, but Aaliyah is just in the stands to provide him encouragement last tournament (UEFA Euro 2024). Aaliyah had gotten attention from fans for her supportive role in Wirtz's life. Even though Wirtz does not regularly share many details about life with Aaliyah, it is clear that Aaliyah has a special spot in Wirtz's life. Their relationship reinforces our perception of Wirtz as a person rather than a player, being admired as his stardom continues to grow.
