Four European giants are reportedly monitoring Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz.

The 21-year-old is firing on all cylinders this season, and was named man of the match as his side defeated AC Milan 1-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday.

He has managed to score six goals and provided one assist in nine appearances thus far.

The attacking midfielder is being followed by four European heavyweights, as per BILD.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Arsenal are all vying to sign Wirtz.

Barcelona's financial struggles should keep them away from the race for the Germany international, who could cost any interested side a whooping €150 million.

Paris Saint-Germain seem to be uninterested in Wirtz, who has a contract with Leverkusen that runs until the summer of 2027, at least for the time being.
