Bayer Leverkusen star Florian Wirtz has taken to Instagram to respond to a report from Sky Germany suggesting he is demanding the No. 10 shirt at Liverpool.
The German international is reportedly close to joining the Reds, with Liverpool currently in negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen over the transfer fee.
Sky Germany claimed that Wirtz would like to wear the No. 10 shirt at Anfield - a number currently worn by Alexis Mac Allister.
However, Wirtz has strongly denied the report, posting on Instagram to refute the suggestion that he wants to take the shirt from Mac Allister.
“Who says I want the 10? I respect players. Don’t believe everything what’s written,” the 22-year-old wrote.
