The History of Liverpool’s Record Transfer Fee: Wirtz Deal Hits New Heights
In a season full of new highs, Liverpool have broken the transfer record for a fee paid by a Premier League club.
They will shell out a cool £116 million for Florian Wirtz, with only Philippe Coutinho’s switch from Anfield to Barcelona commanding a higher fee in a deal involving a Premier League side.
By extension, the capture of the German playmaker is also a record fee paid by Liverpool, so Wirtz clearly has big boots to fill.
