Liverpool face having to slash Shaqiri asking price

Liverpool face having to slash their asking price for Xherdan Shaqiri this summer.

Shaqiri has made just six appearances in the Premier League this campaign.

And a move to Spain beckons, with Sevilla the most likely suitor for the former Bayern Munich star.

The Reds had initially wanted a fee of around £28m for the forward, a huge increase on the £13m they paid Stoke just two years ago, says the Daily Star.

But with revenues being slashed, Sevilla have told the Reds that they will not be able to pay the £28m asking price.

The same goes for other clubs interested, including CSKA Moscow and Roma.

It means Liverpool having to slash their asking price to find a buyer for Shaqiri, says Football Insider.
