Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is considering starting Xherdan Shaqiri against West Ham next weekend after his impressive performances in pre-season, according to the Liverpool Echo, cited by the Daily Express.
Since joining the Reds from Stoke City this summer in a fee worth in the region of £13 million, the Swiss international has caught the eye of his new boss Klopp and despite being signed as a squad player, the 26-year-old could be in line for a surprise start against the Hammers.
The former Inter Milan and Bayern Munich star scored a phenomenal overhead kick against rivals Manchester United on his debut in pre-season in what turned out to be a convincing 4-1 victory.
And despite having a formidable front three of Mohammed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane, reports are suggesting that Shaqiri could be used by Klopp in a deeper midfield role in their curtain-raiser.
Liverpool are set to get their Premier League campaign underway against the Hammers at Anfield next Sunday. - Read Sport
