Florian Wirtz Liverpool transfer U-turn collapse<\/strong> Or at least nobody wants to read about Florian Wirtz anymore unless you are prepared to lose all dignity and pretend that the deal has fallen through. Stepping into that moral-free void are, as ever, the Mirror<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Liverpool draw up fresh Florian Wirtz plan after completing transfer U-turn<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The \u2018fresh Florian Wirtz plan\u2019 is for a medical on Friday, by the way. There\u2019s no indication that the medical was ever planned for another day. And as for the U-turn\u2026<\/p>\n The Reds will pay a total of \u00a3116million to the Bundesliga side, \u00a3100m of which is due upfront. It marks a U-turn for Leverkusen, who had initially been seeking a fee in the region of \u00a3124.6m.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Pretty sure that\u2019s a negotiation rather than a U-turn, but nobody clicks on \u2018negotiations\u2019 and every f***er clicks on \u2018U-turns\u2019, especially when you can pretend that Liverpool have made a U-turn, necessitating a \u2018fresh Florian Wirtz plan\u2019.<\/p>\n But why stop at one U-turn when you can go for two\u2026?<\/p>\n Florian Wirtz criticised after Liverpool transfer U-turn \u2013 \u2018It\u2019s a real shame\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Has Florian Wirtz made a \u2018Liverpool transfer U-turn\u2019? Has he balls. He didn\u2019t even make a Bayern Munich transfer U-turn; he never agreed to join the German champions. Hell, he hasn\u2019t even been \u2018criticised\u2019, but who gives a toss when you can pretend that the Liverpool deal has fallen through?<\/p>\n And even worse\u2026<\/p>\n Liverpool transfer collapsed after medical with \u00a360million target left stunned by decision<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The Liverpool transfer in question? Nabil Fekir in 2000 and b***ard 18.<\/p>\n READ: Transfer rumour power ranking: Spurs eye another Man Utd target, Sancho to land on his feet again?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n And it\u2019s LIVE<\/strong> Transfer news LIVE: Man Utd make Sancho decision as medical date announced<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n The \u2018Sancho decision\u2019 is \u2013 and this will shock you \u2013 that they would quite like to sell him. The medical date? For Florian Wirtz of course. It\u2019s a \u2018fresh plan\u2019, it\u2019s LIVE, and it has sod all to do with Jadon Sancho.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Big, Rash decision<\/strong> And Ruben Amorim has decided that Manchester United should sell Marcus Rashford shirts.<\/p>\n Man Utd choose NOT to sell two players\u2019 2025\/26 shirts as big decision on Marcus Rashford is made<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Are we supposed to be surprised that Man Utd are not (sorry, NOT) giving fans the option of buying shirts for two players who a) have achieved almost nothing with the club and b) are unlikely to ever play for the club again? One of them doesn\u2019t even have a shirt number, FFS.<\/p>\n As for the \u2018big decision\u2019 on Rashford\u2026we suspect that it was slightly influenced by the fact that his name adorned the most sold Manchester United shirts in 2023\/24<\/a> (ahead of Alejandro Garnacho). His shirts sell and will continue to sell because he has 20 years and over 400 games of history with the club.<\/p>\n
We know the drill; as soon as a transfer is done or looks incredibly close to completion, interest drops like a massive rock. Which is why nobody wants to read about Florian Wirtz anymore and absolute bum-water about Manchester United bidding for Raphinha<\/strong><\/a> gets all of the clicks.<\/p>\n\n

We reach that time of the year when kit launches and murals are scoured for clues about summer transfers, as if the decisions of those in marketing and merchandise have been directly influenced by the manager. Because of course Arne Slot has had input into the window display of the club shop in Liverpool One and Mikel Arteta has decided who will wear the third kit in that TikTok video.<\/p>\n\n
