Wiltz s father: My son s ACL surgery was arranged by Heness, and we are still very grateful.

Wilz chose to join Liverpool this summer to reject Bayern. Recently, the player's father Hans was regretful about rejecting Heness in an interview with German media.

Hans said: "Ultimately, the slight differences determine the transfer. In terms of salary, the conditions provided by the two clubs are not much different, so Wirz's choice was not aimed at Bayern, but Liverpool's program convinced him."

"The last call with Heness was very difficult for me. He and Ruménig made incredible efforts for my son. Especially in 2022, after the cruciate ligament injury, Heness helped us arrange the surgery as soon as possible, and we are still very grateful to him."
