Bayer Leverkusen is about to close the renewal of Florian Wirtz, one of the biggest promises in European football. The young German midfielder has been key to the team's recent successes, and to ensure his continuity, the club has decided to improve his contract with a considerable salary increase. However, the player has reportedly set a key condition that could benefit Real Madrid in the not-so-distant future.
As reported by DefensaCentral, Wirtz's new contract includes a specific release clause for clubs like Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Bayern Munich. Although the exact amount is not defined, it is estimated to be between 100 and 120 million euros. This clause would allow the midfielder to change teams without the need for long and complicated negotiations with Leverkusen, as long as one of these European giants is willing to pay it.
The door is not closed to a future signing by Real Madrid
For Real Madrid, this represents an opportunity. Although the club's current priority is to strengthen the defense, Wirtz's name remains on the agenda. His youth and undeniable quality position him as a future candidate to reinforce the Madrid midfield, especially if there is a significant departure in the midfield in the upcoming seasons.
For now, Wirtz's renewal halts any immediate attempts from top European clubs, but in football, nothing is definitive. The situation can change quickly if a key player from Real Madrid leaves a gap in the team. The fact is that Wirtz will eventually aim for the highest, and the white team will closely monitor his progress. The door is not closed; the possibility has only been delayed.
