Xherdan Shaqiri Hints at Liverpool Exit, Says 'Nobody Likes to Sit on the Bench'

Xherdan Shaqiri has hinted he could be ready to leave Liverpool in search of regular football after becoming frustrated with life on the bench.

The Switzerland international told Langenthaler Tagblatt that he wants to find a solution to his current situation at Anfield (h/tRich Jonesat theSunday Mirror).

"I'm disappointed that I do not play anymore," he said. "Nobody likes to sit on the bench. It's clear that I want more time. I have to look at the situation and find a solution."

Shaqiri moved to Liverpool from Stoke City on a five-year deal in July 2018 and initially looked to be an astute signing by manager Jurgen Klopp.
