Liverpool have confirmed summer signing Florian Wirtz will wear the No.7 shirt for the upcoming season following the departure of Luis Díaz to Bayern Munich.
Diaz joined the German side in a £65.5 million ($86m) deal earlier this week. Wirtz will inherit the Colombia international's shirt number following his £100m move from Bayer Leverkusen in June.
