A report claims that Xherdan Shaqiri is wanted by Turkish giants Galatasaray, who are looking to bring him to the club on loan in January.

Galatasaray are looking to sign Xherdan Shaqiri on loan from Liverpool for the second half of the season, according to a report.

The Swiss midfielder has been used mostly as a back-up option by Jurgen Klopp since arriving from Stoke city in a £12m deal during the summer.

Shaqiri saw his stock rise in October with a goal against Cardiff City and assists in the wins against Huddersfield Town and Red Star Belgrade, but Gala are supposedly convinced that they can tempt Liverpool to loan out the player.

Tuttomercatoweb suggests that the 27-year-old is not happy with his circumstances and will consider asking for a temporary switch when the transfer window reopens in two months' time.

Klopp has handed Shaqiri three starts in all competitions this term, two of those coming in the Premier League.
