Florian Wirtz will reportedly undergo his Liverpool medical later this week as the German star edges closer to completing a British record £116m move.
Mail Sport reported last week that an agreement had been reached by the Premier League champions and Leverkusen for the attacking midfielder.
The clubs agreed a base £100m fee for Wirtz, which could rise to £116m depending on bonuses including winning the Premier League and Champions League.
Wirtz is currently on holiday after featuring for Germany in their recent Nations League matches.
According to The Athletic, Liverpool have pencilled in Wirtz to undergo his medical on Friday.
Wirtz is then expected to sign a five-year deal with Liverpool to finalise the transfer.

The deal, which looks set to be the most high-profile of the summer, would represent a major coup for Liverpool.
Wirtz had snubbed interest from Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid in favour of joining Arne Slot’s side this summer.
