German talented midfielder Florian Wirtz, playing for the English club "Liverpool", revealed how difficult the adaptation period was and who helped him in this regard. The player, who was transferred from "Bayer" last summer for 125 million euros, was under serious pressure in the first months. Due to the high pace of the English Premier League and the high demands of the fans, the young star faced a lot of criticism and could not show his best game for a long time.
In an interview with "Anfield Sector", Wirtz emphasized that the role of team leader Mohamed Salah was incomparable. The Egyptian star player, based on his experience, tried to provide mental support to his young colleague. Reminding that he also came to "Liverpool" as a young and expensive transfer in his time, Salah gave advice to Wirtz on how to overcome the pressure. According to him, Salah helped him feel comfortable on the field and in the dressing room through constant conversation.
Currently, the 22-year-old player is gradually regaining his form. This season, Wirtz, who has appeared in 36 matches in all competitions in a "Liverpool" jersey, has managed to score 6 goals and provide 8 assists. Although the difficulties at the beginning of the season affected his statistics, thanks to the support of his experienced teammates, he is taking bold steps towards securing a firm place in the team's main squad.
