Florian Wirtz has shared three wordless messages after Liverpool submitted a club-record bid to sign the Bayer Leverkusen star.
The Reds have been heavily linked with signing the Germany international - in what would be a club and potentially Premier League-record deal.
Liverpool recently submitted a £113million bid to try and sign Wirtz this summer.
Talks remain underway between the Reds and Leverkusen as the Anfield outfit look to reach an agreement for the 22-year-old.
Part of the offer includes an initial fee worth £100million, with the remaining £13million coming from performance-related add-ons.
However, there have been suggestions that Leverkusen value Wirtz at a fee closer to £126million.

Ahead of the match-up on Sunday, Wirtz has posted a message on social media.
On his Instagram story, the Leverkusen star posted two photos of himself during a training session - followed by a brief video of himself performing some tricks in training.
It remains to be seen what involvement Wirtz will have for Germany on Sunday ahead of a potential transfer to Liverpool.
The game against France will be the final one before Wirtz will have a summer break.
Where Wirtz will be going for pre-season, though, remains to be seen - with Liverpool and Leverkusen still yet to agree a deal for the Bundesliga's reigning Player of the Year.

Bayern Munich and Manchester City have also previously been linked with signing highly-rated Wirtz, before the Reds then emerged as favourites to agree a deal last month.
