The video also had a caption which read: "f***ing m**g."
The Liverpool teenager later put out an apology on his Instagram page.
It read: "I would just like to wholeheartedly apologise for any offence caused on the back of a video of me currently circulating on the internet.
"The video was taken whilst messing around with friends in a private environment and was not directed at any individual but I realise that my actions were both immature and senseless.
"I would like to stress that the contents of the video do not represent who I am as a person or how I've been brought up, and I am truly sorry."

Harvey Elliott became the youngest player ever used in the Premier League when he made his debut for Fulham in a 1-0 defeat to Wolves on May 4.
Aged 16 years and one month, he beat the record of another former Fulham youngster, Matthew Briggs, that had stood for 12 years.
Elliott, a boyhood Liverpool fan, joined the Reds for an undisclosed fee over the weekend.
