Alonso is keeping an eye on Wirtz in Liverpool: can a transfer happen within a year?.

Real's interest in Wirtz

According to The Sun: The head coach of Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso, is showing interest in the talent of Florian Wirtz. He worked with Wirtz at Bayer Leverkusen and wants the club to closely monitor his progress.

It is unfortunate that Wirtz is having a tough start at Liverpool after moving for a record £116.5 million. He has yet to score or provide an assist in ten matches.

The situation with Wirtz at Liverpool

Alonso is keeping an eye on the situation, as if Wirtz cannot adapt and wants to leave the club, he is open to cooperation. Perhaps their paths will cross again during the Champions League match in Liverpool, which will take place in less than a month.

Liverpool is unlikely to want to sell Wirtz given his value. However, signs are already visible that he is facing difficulties adapting. For example, he was excluded from the starting lineup before the match against Chelsea.

“I don't think the team's balance is right, and it's obvious that Florian Wirtz doesn't fit,” said Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher.

Amidst the failed management of Arne Slot, Liverpool lost to Chelsea.

“He’s just not in form. He’s a young guy coming into a new league, and he has plenty of time, but right now I think he needs to come out of the team,” Carragher continued.

These problems are raising concerns in Liverpool, which currently occupies second place in the Premier League table after three consecutive defeats. The team's situation is tense, and they need to find ways to return to their usual play.
