Steven Gerrard has urged Liverpool not to give up on Florian Wirtz, comparing the German midfielder’s situation to Philippe Coutinho’s rise.
The £116m signing has struggled for consistency since joining from Bayer Leverkusen in 2025, attracting interest from Bayern Munich.
Gerrard believes Wirtz has the talent to turn things around but warned that Liverpool could consider selling him if his performances fail to improve by the end of the season.
He pointed to Wirtz’s impressive displays for Germany, suggesting that a lack of confidence and the pressure of his price tag are affecting his performances at Anfield.
