Ex-Liverpool attacker Shaqiri slams Lyon: Locker room lacked unity

Former Liverpool attacker Xherdan Shaqiri has taken aim at Olympique Lyon.

Shaqiri left Liverpool for OL last summer before quitting Europe for the USA and Chicago Fire in January.

The Switzerland international struggled to settle in France, though insists the atmosphere at OL didn't help.

He told Les Temps: "The atmosphere in the club wasn't the best either. The locker room lacked unity to win.

"I need to be happy to be successful."
