Florian Wirtz is currently in talks with Manchester City. Although there's no confirmation yet of an offer submitted by City, the fact that Wirtz's camp is speaking to the English club, who had obtained permission from Bayer Leverkusen to contact them, clearly shows that the player did not give a final commitment to FC Bayern. City would be willing to pay Leverkusen's €150m asking price, which Bayern are very reluctant to do [ @kicker
