Xherdan Shaqiri

UNITED PONDER £12M SHAQIRI MOVE

Man Utd want Xherdan Shaqiri as Jose Mourinho considers a £12m deal for the Stoke winger.

The Switzerland international playmaker, 26, is contracted to the Potters until the summer of 2020.



I would love this, wait until Mourinho has enough of him and wants to kick off!

Yeh I agree, Stoke was such a strange move for him in my opinion

It was in some ways, but his stock was quite low after a pretty unproductive period at Bayern so a lower level top flight club might of been the best he could hope for. Then if he proved himself he could get a bigger move again which looks like he could be doing....

Hes been at Stoke since the 15/16 season and nobody has shown the slightest interest.

Now he is available on the cheap, thats the only reason people are looking.

I guarantee Liverpool dont see him as a starter, more like an option to come off the bench and maybe get a worldy.

Lets be fair, you dont know whether anyone has shown the slightest interest in him since 2015.

You are right, he is a more attractive option now he's on the cheap and doubtful he would be in their first XI. But he does make things happen, and at 12m is a snip....
 
Of course we know.

Stoke arent a club able to fend of genuine interest from the big boys.

And even if they ever did, you can guarantee Hughes would be all over SSN bigging himself up about it like he does with everything.

Just as, given Shaqiris own ego, he would have tried to force a move to someone like Liverpool were it ever possible.

Id say its a very safe bet nobody showed any interest.

Because, despite scoring the occasional outrageous goal, he really isnt all that.

Now? He's a punt. Like when we spent £5m on Alli. £12m today is throwaway money, no harm no foul. Either he is useful or they write him off.

Interest from a top club, I agree - I thought you was talking about interest from anyone at all. Tbh I dont think its much of a punt, as to me a punt is an opportunistic risk being taken - At 12m I dont think theres any downside as like you say its throwaway money and I think you know what you're going to get from him and Liverpool have determined that at £12m that represents decent value....
