AS says Real Madrid plans to begin the process of getting a deal agreed, but is in no rush.
However, Bayern Munich is in the best position if Wirtz leaves Bayer Leverkusen next year.
The reigning German champions are also working on extending the German international's contract.
Wirtz has scored six goals and assisted one in ten competitive games for Bayer Leverkusen this season.
His current contract runs until the summer of 2027.
