However, Bayer Leverkusen quickly dismissed the report when approached by RTL and ntv, describing it as the “1000th false rumor” surrounding their attacking star.
Nevertheless, Bayern Munich remain a strong contender in the race for the 21-year-old, who has long been on the club’s radar.
Honorary president Uli Hoeneß continues to maintain a close relationship with the Wirtz family and revealed earlier this month that the player's parents had visited him last year.
Wirtz is under contract with Bayer Leverkusen until 2027.
