Liverpool has included Rayan Cherki in its list of priorities to strengthen its offense in the short term due to the imminent departure of Florian Wirtz, who has not been comfortable since his arrival at Anfield.

According to Football Insider and TEAMtalk, the Anfield board is seeking an alternative due to Florian Wirtz's lack of adaptation, preparing an investment of between 80 and 90 million euros in case the Manchester club needs to sell assets due to financial sanctions.

Florian Wirtz's fit at Anfield and the option of Rayan Cherki

Merseyside's team spent 125 million euros to sign Florian Wirtz, but criticisms of his performance under Andoni Iraola's system have raised doubts about his long-term continuity in the squad. Faced with this scenario, Liverpool's technical department has reactivated reports on the 23-year-old player, whom they previously tried to sign with face-to-face meetings before his transfer to Manchester City from Olympique de Lyon in June 2025.

The French forward is under contract at the Etihad Stadium until 2030 with an official valuation of 90.00 million euros on Transfermarkt, but a potential relegation or administrative sanction could facilitate his exit.

Competition with Arsenal and continental competition from PSG, Real Madrid, and Barcelona

Alongside Liverpool's interest in keeping the player in England, Arsenal is monitoring the financial situation of the 'citizens' to make a formal offer. Additionally, Paris Saint-Germain is preparing a high economic proposal, while Real Madrid, FC Barcelona, and Bayern Munich have closely followed his performance.

The versatility of the French international to play as an attacking midfielder or central midfielder in creating play is attractive to Liverpool analysts.

Reds' financial strategy to address the transfer

Liverpool's board is assessing the required liquidity to make a transfer of 80 to 90 million euros. The potential sale of Florian Wirtz to the continental market would offset the arrival of the Manchester City player without compromising the budget.

The club's executives are confident that the guarantee of undisputed starting position will sway the player's decision over European alternatives. Liverpool's scouts will monitor Florian Wirtz's continuity during the official commitments in November and December of 2026.

If the struggles of the German midfielder at Anfield Road persist, Liverpool will engage with Rayan Cherki's representatives in early 2027 to try to secure his signing.
