In a thrilling Champions League match, Bayer Leverkusen's Florian Wirtz showed off his incredible skills, scoring two goals in their 4-0 victory over Feyenoord. And it seems that his impressive performance has caught the attention of Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta.
However, former player Owen Hargreaves believes that Wirtz may have his sights set on bigger clubs such as Real Madrid or Manchester City. The 21-year-old midfielder had previously missed out on the Champions League due to an injury, but he made up for lost time with an outstanding display against Feyenoord.
Not only did Wirtz score two goals, but he was also named Player of the Match for his contribution to the team. His stellar performance has only added to the speculation that he may be leaving Leverkusen at the end of the season.
Hargreaves believes that all of Europe's top clubs should be lining up to sign Wirtz, given his impressive statistics and his status as a rising star for Germany. He even suggests that Arsenal would love to have him on their team, but Wirtz may have his sights set on joining either Real Madrid or Manchester City.
Hargreaves sees Wirtz as a brilliant young player who has the potential to become a key player for any team. He compares him to Real Madrid's Toni Kroos, who started as a No.10 and gradually worked his way back, eventually becoming a master in controlling the game.
But it's not just Hargreaves who is singing Wirtz's praises. Leverkusen head coach Xabi Alonso was thrilled with Wirtz's performance in his first Champions League game, saying that it was a good feeling to see him do so well. And Wirtz's teammate, Granit Xhaka, is also proud of his hard work paying off.
It's no surprise that Wirtz is attracting attention from top clubs, as he has proven himself to be a talented and hardworking player on the field. It remains to be seen where he will end up, but one thing is for sure - he has a bright future ahead of him.
