Asked if he will leave Leverkusen if his coach decides to move on in the summer, Wirtz told Der Spiegel:
"It's very important to me that I have such a good relationship with him. But of course we decide our future independently. I don't tie my path to his, no.
"I really don't know what the coach is going to do. And as for my future: My focus these days is on the national team. And after that, I still have a lot of plans with Bayer Leverkusen."
20-year-old Wirtz is contracted to Leverkusen until 2027.
