Liverpool target Xherdan Shaqiri has dropped a fresh hint he's pushing to leave Bayern Munich.
Bayern's sporting director Matthias Sammer yesterday dismissed suggestions the Switzerland international will leave in the current window, insisting he is not for sale.
"Xherdan is an important player for the future," the Bayern chief told Kicker.
"There are no thoughts at all about selling him."
But in an apparent show of defiance, Shaqiri has offered suitors renewed hope of securing his signature.
The midfielder took to social media on Tuesday and cheekily tweeted significantly in English:
I live in present... Not in future....;-)
