Shaqiri set to be granted free transfer by Liverpool

Xherdan Shaqiri expects to be granted a free transfer by Liverpool.

Corriere Dello Sport says Shaqiri is the subject of interest from Serie A outfit Lazio, though the Italian side are running particularly low on funds at the moment.

In turn, to boost his chances of swapping Liverpool for Lazio, Shaqiri has asked Jurgen Klopp to waive their desire for a transfer fee and allow him to leave on a free.

And as a token of goodwill, Liverpool look set to agree and let the attacking midfielder walk out of the exit door for nothing.

Lazio have failed to muster up transfer funds of their own after failing to offload 26-year-old striker Joaquin Correa, who has been touted with a move to one of two Premier League clubs in either Everton or Leicester City.
