Alonso advises Chelsea to sign Wirtz if he leaves Liverpool

Xabi Alonso, Chelsea's head coach, has advised the London club's management to enter the race for Florian Wirtz, a Liverpool player, if he becomes available for transfer during the upcoming summer transfer window, according to TEAMtalk.

The report clarified that Alonso informed Chelsea officials of the need to think about signing the German player, who he previously worked with at Bayer Leverkusen, after overseeing his development into one of the top attacking midfielders in Europe.

Chelsea are not currently moving to sign Florian Wirtz, but they are keeping an eye on his situation with Liverpool in case of a potential departure next summer, given the uncertainty surrounding his future with the English team.

Florian Wirtz has joined Liverpool for a deal that could reach £116 million, but the club's management is still waiting for him to deliver the expected level and impact, despite their belief in the success of the transfer and confidence in his ability to shine in the Premier League.

The source indicated that Bayern Munich are also keeping an eye on the player, having attempted to sign him before his transfer to Liverpool. However, there are no indications that the Reds are set to make a decision to sell Wirtz just yet, making Chelsea's potential move dependent on developments regarding his future.
