Liverpool are reportedly holding out for £13m for winger Xherdan Shaqiri in the midst of interest from Lazio, as reported by the Liverpool Echo and documented by Anfield Watch on Twitter.

On the periphery in 2020/21, the Swiss international registered five goal contributions in just 22 games for the Merseyside giants, with one goal and four assists [Transfermarkt].

However, the same cannot be said regarding his involvement for the Switzerland national team at Euro 2020. Notching an impressive three goals in five appearances for the eventual quarter-finalists, Shaqiri has demonstrated his ability to deliver at the highest level.

The Reds are now set to demand a relatively modest £13m sum for the 29-year-old as interest from Serie A intensifies [Liverpool Echo]. In light of this, many Liverpool supporters took to Twitter to voice their displeasure at these latest developments.

"Why sell him, we have already let Wijnaldum go without replacement. Depth is very important especially the amount of games in a season."

"Liverpool logic: sell Shaqiri for £13 million but keep Origi and other deadwood. Ridiculous"
"If that’s the price I’d rather keep him"
