Liverpool attacker Shaqiri: I can't say I've fulfilled my potential - but no regrets

Liverpool attacker Xherdan Shaqiri admits he hasn't fulfilled his potential - but insists he has no regrets.

Indeed, Shaqiri insists he can still improve as a player.

"Have I achieved my potential? When you think where I came from, I'm very, very proud of what I achieved in my career," Shaqiri told the Daily Mail.

"I could not be more proud of what I have achieved until now. I never thought in my life I was going to play for the kind of clubs I have played for. I can say I fulfilled my dreams 200 per cent. I will not say I fulfilled my potential but I have showed many times what kind of potential I have. I am still 29. I can still improve myself. I can say I fulfilled my dreams 100 per cent and I gave 100 per cent always and what I achieved until now is unbelievable.

"When I look back in 10 years when I don't play any more football, for sure I am going to see some nice videos of me, some nice goals, some nice passes. That's my goal, that I enjoyed my whole career with the ups and downs, which is normal. We can still achieve a lot of things but until now I am really proud of what I achieved."
