Hans Virts, the father of Florian Virts, explained his son's choice. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
This summer, forward midfielder Florian moved from the "Bayer" club to "Liverpool," not to "Bavaria." He said as a father: "The rumors about an agreement with 'Bavaria' are not true.
I couldn't promise anything, as the decision is made by Florian. At that time, all options were open.
Uli Hoeness and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge made a great effort. I have a lot of respect for Hoeness.
When Florian suffered a serious injury in 2022, he quickly assisted with the surgery in Innsbruck. We will never forget this.
Therefore, my last conversation with Hoeness was very difficult for me. Of course, he couldn't hide that he was disappointed.
He worked hard for the transfer. In his company, Florian also had good ideas about how to adapt to the "Bavaria" game.
Everything was decided in the details: the difference in the sports situation and Florian's role. Financially, there was no significant difference between the clubs' offers.
Florian saw moving abroad as a new challenge both personally and in sports. That’s why he chose "Liverpool," said Hans Virts to Der Spiegel.
