Here is the data behind Germany&#8217;s creative heartbeat. For the bigger picture, see our <a href=\"\/us\/world-cup-2026\/\">World Cup 2026<\/a> hub.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Florian Wirtz stats: club and country by the numbers<\/h2>\n<p>The architect of Leverkusen&#8217;s unbeaten title and now a Liverpool playmaker, Wirtz&#8217;s record in our database reads:<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Team<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Apps<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Goals<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Assists<\/th><th style=\"text-align:center\">Chances created<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Bayer Leverkusen<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">186<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">53<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">59<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">412<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Liverpool<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">48<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">7<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">7<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">95<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Germany<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">12<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">3<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">3<\/td><td style=\"text-align:center\">31<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table>\n\n<h2>What the numbers say<\/h2>\n<p>Wirtz is the rare playmaker who scores and creates in equal measure. He racked up 53 goals and 59 assists for Leverkusen, creating 412 chances and 77 big chances and playing 910 passes into the penalty area, and his 59 assists came from an expected-assists figure of 32.5, a huge overperformance that speaks to the quality of the openings he carves out. The early Liverpool returns (seven goals and seven assists in 48 games) show the move to the Premier League has not slowed him.<\/p>\n\n<h2>A game-breaking number 10<\/h2>\n<p>What sets Wirtz apart is his ability to do everything in the final third: glide between the lines, carry the ball through pressure and pick the killer pass, while also arriving to finish. Across nearly 14,000 Leverkusen minutes he was the team&#8217;s creative engine, and that same threat now drives Liverpool and Germany.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Florian Wirtz at the World Cup 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Germany are among the contenders for the World Cup 2026, and Wirtz is the creative heartbeat of their attack.
