The 21-year-old is drawing interest from numerous elite clubs throughout europe as he develops and is perceived as one of Germany\u2019s future great products. As per German publication\u00a0BILD, Leverkusen may struggle to hold onto Wirtz beyond this season and there are four clubs in the running to sign him next season.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"headline_headline__IQpss\" aria-label=\"Headline\">THe BIGGeR PICTURe<\/h2>\n<p>Premier League duo Manchester City and Arsenal are two of the clubs who have a \u2018good chance\u2019 to sign Wirtz next season, alongside La Liga heavyweights Real Madrid and Leverkusen\u2019s rivals Bayern Munich.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Getty Images Sport<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"headline_headline__IQpss\" aria-label=\"Headline\">DID YOU KNOW?<\/h2>\n<p>Bayer Leverkusen are fully aware of Wirtz\u2019s talents and have reportedly decided on a price tag close to \u20ac150 million (\u00a3126.2m\/$165.5m) to try and thwart attempts to sign the German. The price tag means Barcelona, who have also shown interest in the 21-year-old, are firmly unlikely to make any attempts due to their economic issues.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"headline_headline__IQpss\" aria-label=\"Headline\">WHAT NeXT FOR WIRTZ?<\/h2>\n<p>The German will try to increase his stock among clubs this season with another Bundesliga title pursuit and hopefully a run deep into the Champions League.
