Since joining Liverpool, Wirtz is under considerable pressure and has to face criticism from the media due to poor offensive data. In an interview with "Cologne City News", Wirtz's father Hans said that they did not regret their move to the Red Army, and said that this is a completely normal integration process at present.
In the Premier League, Wirtz has not participated in any goals in 11 consecutive games. This is not the performance that Liverpool expected for its 125 million euro investment. Correspondingly, the criticism from the English media is also very strong.
However, Hans Wirtz said that his son still does not regret his decision to move to Anfield: "Florian took this step consciously to become a better football player. And he does not regret this in any way. He spent his time at Liverpool He is looking forward to every training and he has integrated into the team. We are 100% satisfied with the progress so far."
Some harsh criticism has not had much impact on the 22-year-old player, Hans Wirtz explained: "I only noticed it slightly. Criticism from those former international players. Florian is a young man who wants to prove himself in a new environment."
For the father and agent, another reason for his continued optimism is that only 11 of the 38 rounds of the Premier League have been played: "So far. So far, everything has gone as expected. This is a completely normal adaptation process and has nothing to do with the transfer fee. "
In addition, looking at the statistics, we can also find that the German international has integrated well into Liverpool's game. He only lacks goals and assists.
As for the national team, Wirtz will face Luxembourg and Slovakia with the German team in the past few days. Under the best circumstances, he hopes to gain confidence in the next few weeks. Hans Wirtz also said: "Florian has always regarded playing for the national team as an honor. So of course he is also very happy to be in such an environment again."
