Celtic midfielder Victor Wanyama hopes to hear from Liverpool next week.
The Daily Mail says Southampton have had a bid accepted by Celtic but the move will trigger a six-club tussle, including Liverpool, for the Kenya international.
Wanyama is understood to prefer a move to Liverpool but they have other priorities they need to sign first.
Wanyama said: "I am on holiday, I am only hearing this from the media but I can say the deal is far from being complete. Yes, my club has agreed terms with Southampton, but I will also have to agree to terms too."
