Report: Liverpool approve sale of Shaqiri for ‘almost zero’
Liverpool have approved the sale of Xherdan Shaqiri for ‘almost zero’ during this summer’s transfer window.
What’s the story?
The Switzerland international is one of the Reds players who is looking to move on this summer after a frustrating campaign last season.
Shaqiri featured just 22 times across all competitions last season as he played a bit-part role.
According to The Athletic, the Merseysiders would only be able to sign forwards if they sell the 29-year-old and Divock Origi.
And it seems the ace is now on his way out.
According to , Shaqiri has asked the Liverpool hierarchy to leave this summer.
The club is ready to satisfy his demands because he only proved to be an ‘alternative in [Jurgen] Klopp’s choices’.
Lazio are interested in the ace, who has previously labelled ‘unbelievable’.

Shaqiri sale should kickstart a late move for attacker for Liverpool
The sale of Shaqiri should kickstart a late move for an attacker for Liverpool.
Klopp’s side are in dire need of some reinforcements in the final third.
Alongside the former Basel ace, Origi and Takumi Minamino have proven underwhelming additions.
Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane have been carrying the brunt of Liverpool’s threat. They require help, but, the lack of squad space and funds was hampering a potential move.
Now, the northwest giants have no excuse. With Shaqiri heading out of the door and Origi likely to leave, the club need to sign an attacker in what remains of the window.
