In the following lines, "The First Page" monitors the full details of the five major deals war in the 2025 European Mercato
Wirtz... the magician of European football
Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Wirtz has become the most sought-after signing in Europe, with four major clubs—Liverpool, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Manchester City—looking to sign him in the 2025 transfer window.
Real Madrid offered Wirtz €65 million, but Leverkusen rejected the offer. Manchester City also raised its offer to €75 million and is awaiting a response, while Bayern Munich is Wirtz's first choice.
Liverpool stormed into the race and succeeded in submitting a huge offer exceeding 100 million euros, while Wirtz himself was considering signing him.
Donnarumma...the most expensive goalkeeper in the transfer market
Gigi Donnarumma, the Italian national team goalkeeper and Paris Saint-Germain star, is widely tipped to be the most expensive goalkeeper in Europe in the 2025 transfer window if he leaves his club.
Manchester United offered €51 million to buy Donnarumma from Paris Saint-Germain. Donnarumma had previously refused to renew his contract with his club Paris Saint-Germain and requested to leave at the end of the season.
Julian Alvarez... a three-way battle
Liverpool, Arsenal and Bayern Munich are currently in a three-way battle to sign Atletico Madrid's Argentine striker Julian Alvarez, whose price tag is close to €100 million.
Julian Alvarez has been in fine form for Atletico Madrid, scoring over 25 goals this season and becoming a sought-after asset, especially for Liverpool and Arsenal, who have both requested to negotiate a deal to sign him in the 2025 transfer window.
Luis Diaz... Barcelona's first dream
Barcelona's signing of one of the five major signings, Luis Diaz, the Liverpool star and distinguished winger, has become a major dream for Barça coach Hansi Flick after he renewed his contract with the club for another season in Barcelona.
Liverpool are demanding at least €85 million for the sale of Luis Diaz, especially since the Reds want him to stay with the club for at least another season, at the request of his coach, Arne Slot.
Tijani Reinders.. Manchester City's request
One of the five big signings that have made a strong impression on the 2025 transfer market is Manchester City, who are seeking to sign AC Milan midfielder Tijani Reinders at the request of coach Pep Guardiola.
Manchester City offered €70 million to sign Tijani Reynders from Milan, but Milan is still willing to increase the price, especially since City has spent even more on other players.
