LIVERPOOL are in a race against time to seal the £126million record signing of Florian Wirtz before he joins up with Germany.
Bayer Leverkusen star Wirtz is due to report for international duty tomorrow ahead of the Nations League semi-final with Portugal next Wednesday.
The attacking midfielder wants a deal agreed before he heads off.
But the Germans will not go below their £126m valuation, a British record deal from a foreign club.
Leverkusen turned down Liverpool’s opening bid of £86m plus add-ons earlier this week.
They want £20m more up front, plus clauses to take it up to £126m.
Wirtz, 22, is thought to have agreed personal terms on a five-year deal.
Leverkusen team-mate Jeremie Frimpong flew to the UK on Tuesday for a medical ahead of his own £29.6m move to Anfield.
Frimpong has emerged as the chosen man to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold at Anfield.
The boyhood Red played his last game for the club on Sunday ahead of his exit.

Alexander-Arnold is set to join Real Madrid in a free transfer, with Los Blancos hoping to finalise the deal before the Club World Cup.
The full-back will join former Bayer Leverkusen head coach Xabi Alonso at the Santiago Bernabeu.
Alonso was appointed as the new Real Madrid boss last week.
He signed a three-year deal upon his arrival and will officially take control on June 1.
Real Madrid face Al-Hilal in their first Club World Cup match next month.
