Chelsea Lead Race to Sign Highly Coveted German Wonderkid, Targeted by Real Madrid
Real Madrid has a strong track record of signing some of the world’s best young talents, and this summer, their acquisition of Jude Bellingham for €134 million from Borussia Dortmund is already proving to be a bargain, with the Englishman emerging as one of the game’s top players.
Another promising talent signed by Real Madrid in the summer is Arda Guler, who, despite being sidelined by injuries, has displayed his potential during training sessions, fueling high expectations for his future debut.
Real Madrid’s pursuit of emerging talents continues, with Florian Wirtz being a prominent target. However, the competition for the German wonderkid’s signature is fierce, as he has also attracted interest from other top clubs.
As reported by TEAMtalk, Chelsea is one of the English clubs keen on securing Wirtz’s services, as the Bayer Leverkusen player aligns well with their vision. Other elite clubs, including Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Barcelona, are also monitoring the young German international.
Wirtz’s appeal is well-deserved, as he stands out as one of the brightest young talents in European football. Currently, Bayer Leverkusen leads the Bundesliga table, with Wirtz’s exceptional form being a key contributing factor. According to statistics from Transfermarkt, he has scored six goals and provided nine assists in 15 appearances this season.
Interestingly, there are rumors circulating that Xabi Alonso might take over as Real Madrid manager next season, potentially giving the club an advantage in their pursuit of Wirtz.
