Florian Wirtz is going to miss several weeks because of an ankle injury, which Bayer Leverkusen just confirmed. This is really bad for the team’s chances in both German league and Champions League games and could mess up how well they do.

  • Florian Wirtz is going to be out for a few weeks with his ankle injury.
  • Bayer Leverkusen said it was true and Fabrizio Romano posted about it on Twitter.
  • Not having Wirtz is going to hurt Leverkusen real bad, especially when it comes to making plays and scoring goals.

Florian Wirtz’s Impact on Bayer Leverkusen

Florian Wirtz who plays attacking mid for Bayer Leverkusen has been super important for the team. The club said he’s got an ankle injury and Fabrizio Romano tweeted about it which is really bad news. Wirtz has been doing amazing in all their games and getting injured now is like the worst timing ever.


This season in the Bundesliga Wirtz played 25 games and got 9 goals plus gave 11 assists to his teammates. He’s been good in Europe too with 9 games 1 goal and 2 assists in Champions League. The way he plays has been really important for how good Leverkusen’s been doing everywhere.

Wirtz’s Career and Market Value

Since he came to Bayer Leverkusen from 1. FC Köln back in 2020 Wirtz has turned into one of the best young players in Europe. People say he’s worth like €140 million as of December 2024 which shows how good he is. He’s played 29 times for Germany and scored 6 goals which proves he can do it for both his club and country.

Bayer Leverkusen keeping Wirtz even though big teams wanted him shows how much they need him. But now that he’s hurt they’re going to have to change how they play to keep winning games without him.

Challenges Ahead for Bayer Leverkusen

Wirtz getting hurt right now is really bad timing because Bayer Leverkusen is trying to win the Bundesliga and do good in Champions League. With big games coming up, the team’s got to figure out how to win without their best playmaker. It’s also not good for Germany’s national team cause they really need him too.
