Acknowledging the camera on him, he stared down the lens and started waving his left hand up and down across the front of his face.
He then proceeded to flip between frowning and smiling before eventually gesturing the camera to move on.
Fans found the brief clip hilarious, with one person writing: “The face of a man who knows he’s got a BIG paycheque coming his way .”
Duran is understood to be closing in on a huge £65million transfer to Saudi Pro League side Al-Nassr.
Reports claim he will earn around £320,000-a-week in Riyadh – a huge increase on his current salary.
Referencing the move, another joked: “Saudi money was on his mind.”
While a third said: “The look of a very potentially rich man.”
Duran completed a medical today ahead of his proposed transfer and is now expected to fly to Saudi Arabia to finalise things.

His move could put an end to Arsenal‘s pursuit of Ollie Watkins.
The Gunners had a shock £60m bid for the England international rejected by Aston Villa earlier this week.
It is currently unclear whether or not Arsenal will return with an improved offer.
But with Duran now on his way out, Villa will be very reluctant to sell.
Watkins previously admitted that it would be a “dream” to play for Arsenal.
During his time at Brentford, he said: “Yeah, that’s the dream, to play for Arsenal one day. But, you know, it’s a long shot.”
