Former Switzerland international Kubilay Turkyilmaz has warned Xherdan Shaqiri off moving to Liverpool.
The Bayern Munich winger has been linked with the Reds.
But Kubilay said: "England would suit Shaq more. They are less obsessed with tactics there, but a move to Liverpool right now could not be more unsuitable.
"They are in a crisis and cannot really have any ambitions this year. Joining them from Bayern, who expect to win titles every season, would be a culture shock."
The former Swiss striker did however concede that Spain is the best destination for the 23-year-old.
"Atletico would be a good destination, on the other hand. In the Primera Division - the strongest league in the world - they play a highly technical possession-based football. Atletico play fast counterattacking football and that would be perfect for Shaq."
