Jetro Willems has claimed his Liverpool transfer stunt was merely a ‘joke’ after coming into some criticism.
The highly-rated PSV Eindhoven left-back took to social media platform Snapchat to post a fake image of him ‘signing’ for Liverpool.
The picture featured his own head photo-shopped on top of Georginio Wijnaldum’s body after his fellow Dutchman put pen to paper on his £25million move from Newcastle United.
Liverpool, who are already in the market for a new left full back after selling Brad Smith to Bournemouth, will be keen to add competition for the faltering Alberto Moreno.

When asked about the image, Willems said: ‘It was a joke. Let’s not take everything too seriously in life.’
Willems, who is close friends with Wijnaldum, dropped a subtle transfer hint after the former Newcastle man completed his move.
‘I wish you all the best at your new club my friend, we’ll see each other again soon!’ Willems said.
