Wirtz is regarded highly inside Barcelona and Real Madrid, while Manchester City chiefs see the youngster as an ideal successor for veteran Kevin de Bruyne.
However, Hoeness has hopes Bayern can convince Wirtz to remain in Germany should he choose to leave Bayer this summer.
Bayern's honorary president told Kicker: "I've said this many times before: I would like Florian Wirtz. But it's only a wish, because you're asking me."
Wirtz's deal with Bayer runs to 2027.
