Xherdan Shaqiri

Who says the Germans have no sense of humour? Not the Daily Star, which claims that Schalke have "laughed off speculation" linking them with a January move for Bayern Munich winger Xherdan Shaqiri.

The news that the Swiss sizzler is still very much on the market will be a tonic to Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham. The Premier League trio have heard rumours to the effect that the 22-year-old Shaqiri "is reportedly unhappy" in Munich and it's believed one or all will table big money bids in the New Year.
