The former One Direction singer, 29, shared a nose-to-nose promo picture of himself with boxer Tommy Fury, 23, in what appeared to be a suggestion they would fight.
Listing the location as Old Trafford, Manchester, their two names topped the title, although without any ‘vs’.
‘This summer. Announcement tomorrow,’ it continued.
Liam’s only comment on their team-up was a single side-eye emoji.
The Strip That Down singer’s followers were truly surprised by the post, sharing their excitement, bafflement and worry.
‘What is this?!?!’ asked one, while another added: ‘I hope this is a joke? Seriously could not watch someone hit you!’
