Brendan Rodgers is planning a transfer raid for Bayern Munich winger and Switzerland World Cup star Xherdan Shaqiri this summer.
The Swiss is amoung many players that has been linked with The Reds over the recent weeks, with Southampton duo Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren emerging to be prime targets for Rodgers, but pace and strength out wide it something that Liverpool lacked last season as their title bid fell just short, causing Shaqiri to emerge as another potential target.
It is thought that Rodgers would need to pay around £15million to purchase Shaqiri, who has struggled to get into the Bayern team since joining from Basel in 2012. Rodgers however will also be keen to strengthen a defence which leaked over 50 Premier League goals last season, which may mean a buying a defensive player could have priority.
