Bayern Munich did not respond well to miss Florian Wirtz to Liverpool. The German giants can be used to dealing with the transfer goal after landing the best of Bundesliga talents for years.

And yet Wirtz was convinced of the project presented by Arne Slot and Richard Hughes, and instead decided to join Liverpool in a British record of £ 116 million.
Since then, Bayern has switched to 23-year-old Germany-U21 striker Nick Wolemade and it is assumed that you have an oral agreement with the Stuttgart man.

With a potential price day of between 68 and 88 million GBP, sports director Max Eberl has admitted that Bavaria has to negotiate with Stuttgart in order to find a more acceptable fee.

This meant that Bayern legend Lothar Matthhaus claimed that the value of Wolemade from Bayern 50 million GBP was “too low”, an assertion that led to the former midfielder of Bayern president claimed that the former Germany had “lost its mind”.
He said: “Lothar Matthäus has clearly lost its mind. I have been fed up with these so -called experts for some time. Matthäus prints with such comments, especially on Stuttgart. Ultimately, the club will look like the loser if the transmission fee is lower.”
Matthaus published an angry answer to the Hoeness and said that Hoess Lebend “in his own world” and claimed that the fee that Liverpool paid for Wirtz proves its point of view of Bavaria’s attitude towards Wolemade.
He said to BILD: “First of all, I have to say that I am used to ensuring Uli Hoenness insults, and I’m no longer taking them seriously. He has been doing this for 20, 25 years. I don’t let it come to me anymore. That makes you thick. Uli Housiness is still alive. [for Woltemade]But Uli Hoeneß apparently didn’t read it properly again.

“He is only interested in attacking other people to distract from his own mistakes. I know the market both in Germany and internationally. And I still believe that this assessment is correct. [than Woltemade]. Many months ago I predicted for Florian Wirtz that the total package is € 250 million – and that happened. These are simply the numbers these days.
“At Bayern FC, things are only seen from one side. If I think of Jamal Musiala: Bavaria would want much more for him than Wirtz. Bavaria would want 180 million €. So why can’t Wirtz cost € 150 million or Woltemade € 80-100 million?
Uli Hoeness lives in his own world. He may no longer be up to date with the transfer market. Bayern Munich wants a player who now has this market. “As a memory: FC Bayern already gave 80 million euros for Lucas Hernández in 2019.
“Horners should examine internally: Why didn’t FC Bayern and their scouts wolemade discover in the past? Why are they only aware of it now?

“With Woltemade, VfB management did a much better job. Instead, FC Bayern Joao Palhinha brought with it for € 50 million, who was previously only a backup player and hardly played even in unimportant games. These are the problems that Hoene should approach.”
In fact, Matthhaus is clearly a big fan of Wirtz and was surprised that the 22-year-old left the Bundesliga this summer, but he supported the striker to have a great influence in the Premier League.
“Personally, I also thought that Florian would like to stay in Germany in the next few years. He has a big challenge. It is not just a new club: it is a new mentality, a new language,” said Matthhaus to BILD.
“But this step also shows that he is not afraid. Florian Wirtz believes 100 percent – and rightly so: I have absolute confidence in him that he will make it in Liverpool and in the Premier League.
“He doesn’t have to hide from someone. A year before the World Cup, the move is also a risk of leaving in the unknown – but his friends and family will certainly support him very well.”
