Report gathered from the camp of Liverpool indicates that Xherdan Shaqiri has finished a super durable move to Lyon from the club.
29-year-old Shaqiri has marked a three-year contract with the Ligue 1 club and as per report gathered the whole deal is worth a whopping 6m euros in addition to a potential 5m euros in additional items.
Xherdan Shaqiri who joined Liverpool from Stoke City in a £13m bargain in 2018, played only five Premier League games under Liverpool manager ”Jurgen Klopp” last season. Shaqiri turns into the second Liverpool player to join a Ligue 1 club this mid year, with Georginio Wijnaldum having joined Paris St-Germain after his contract with the club elapsed.
In other news, Juventus coach, Massimiliano Allegri has denied reports that former Real Madrid playmaker, Cristiano Ronaldo refused to begin Sunday’s 2-2 draw against Udinese.
It was an unexpected surprise to some fans when on Sunday, August 22, 2021 Cristiano Ronaldo was excluded from the first 11 for the game. Different reports in Italy had asserted that Ronaldo revealed to Allegri that he would not like to start the game as he is looking for an exit from Juventus this mid year.
Notwithstanding that, Allegri has boldly denied those reports, demanding that it was his sole choice to put Ronaldo on the bench.
Cristiano Ronaldo entered the field of play in the 60th minute of the match and even thought that he had scored a last minute winner, however Ronaldo’s header was precluded for offside.
Cristiano Ronaldo has one year left on his contract in Turin, has been connected with moves to Manchester City, Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain.
This is what Allegri had to say;
”Ronaldo is feeling well. I had talked to him before the game, telling him he would start on the bench. He made himself available, he did well when he entered the pitch”.
