Wirtz’s burst and agility let him exploit pockets between midfield and defence. He can press quickly, make late runs into the box, and escape markers in tight spaces.

His right-foot finishing is a genuine weapon, composed shots at the near post, accurate low-driven finishes, and confident strikes from just outside the box.

Vision, timing and decision-making are elite. Wirtz excels at through balls, threaded passes, and clever one-twos that break defensive lines. He consistently creates high-quality chances for forwards and midfield runners.

Excellent first touch and dribbling in tight areas. He moves the ball with fluidity, retains possession under pressure, and links play cleanly. That composure helps him dictate tempo and avoid needless turnovers in dangerous zones.
