Liverpool's opening bid for German star Florian Wirtz is believed to be in 'excess' of €100million (£85m) with add-ons, according to a report.
Bayer Leverkusen have reportedly now received the Reds' offer, with negotiations set to restart on Monday to have the deal concluded 'very soon'.
Wirtz, who is one of the brightest young stars in world football, is keen on a move to Anfield after turning down the chance to join Bayern Munich or remain at the BayArena for another year.
According to Fabrizio Romano, a deal for the 22-year-old is currently being thrashed out and is expected to be finalised swiftly.
