Liverpool open talks with Stoke City regarding Xherdan Shaqiri

Liverpool have opened talks with Stoke City regarding a potential transfer for Xherdan Shaqiri, according to The Telegraph.

Jurgen Klopp is keen to add some depth to the attacking half of the pitch by signing Shaqiri, who has a release clause believed to be over £13million.

Shaqiri revealed last week that his future would be decided soon, and it appears Liverpool will be his destination as they are now in talks with Stoke City.

Shaqiri is ultimately looking for a move as Stoke City were relegated to the Championship for the upcoming season.

The Swiss international has just recently played at the World Cup, but that ended last week when Switzerland were knocked out of the tournament by Sweden.
