Xherdan Shaqiri hasn’t featured for Liverpool in the Premier League this season and has asked not to be considered for international selection in September.
The Liverpool Echo adds that Shaqiri was not named for Switzerland’s Euro 2020 qualifiers against Ireland and Gibraltar.
The report claims that the national team’s Twitter account stated that Shaqiri wants to focus on his club career. Shaqiri played for us in the Community Shield defeat against Manchester City, however, there have been no minutes in the Premier League.
Jurgen Klopp spoke to the media yesterday ahead of our trip to Burnley and suggested that Shaqiri would be required once the international break is done.
Liverpool’s Champions League and Carabao Cup journeys begin after that, and it will be interesting to see how the Swiss star is used by Klopp.
The Swiss international was excellent in the first half of the previous campaign and we need his quality when the schedule features midweek games.
Shaqiri can play in several attacking positions and an provide cover for Mohamed Salah.
The former Stoke City star scored some crucial goals for us last season and hopefully, he does the same for us in this season too.
