This summer, Wirtz joined Liverpool from Bayer Leverkusen for a transfer fee of 116 million pounds. However, after 10 rounds of Premier League games, the 22-year-old German has not scored any goals or assists. He is going through a difficult adaptation period in the Premier League. Hans Wirtz expressed his views on his son's performance in an interview with Bild.
Hans Wirtz said: "From the beginning, my idea was to wait and observe the performance of the first 10 league games. Florian and I are very satisfied with it. The incredible speed and sprinting back and forth in the first few games were very impressive. The distance and speed of the players have increased significantly. The style of play is sometimes very different, because it seems not so organized here, but more focused on speed."
"I think the league standings clearly show that there is room for improvement in this team, but these problems will be solved gradually. I hope that he is a good enough player to adapt to the requirements there and enjoy playing as he did in the Bundesliga."
"Sloter's communication with Florian was very important, and he explained his value to the latter. He showed his view on cooperation, which convinced Florian."
