The results of the season preparation indicate that it will be ready to get started. (…) The applause at the beginning of the second half Got on a corner shows that The Kop (Liverpools fan curve) is already convinced. “


Wirtz was used in the last of the two test games against Bilbao for over 75 minutes and had some good offensive campaigns. A goal was not granted to the man with number seven.
