Bayern are still targeting Wirz. Uli Hoeneß is in talks with the player's father

Bayern Munich is still focused on Bayer Leverkusen's star Florian Wirtz and continues to work toward securing a deal, according to Florian Plettenberg.

Details: If the 21-year-old player extends his contract with Bayer, Bayern hopes to sign him through a release clause option in the summer of 2026, after the World Cup.

Bayern's chairman, Uli Hoeneß, is directly involved in negotiations with Wirtz's camp, particularly due to his strong relationship with Wirtz's father, Hans.

Max Eberl also reached out to Wirtz's camp a few weeks ago and began working on a potential transfer.

Reminder: It was previously reported that Wirtz intends to reject a possible move to another club and will stay at Bayer Leverkusen for at least another year. The player and the club plan to extend his current contract, which expires in the summer of 2027.
