# Liverpool rule out Shaqiri joining Roma or Sevilla in January

Liverpool will not be selling Xherdan Shaqiri during the January transfer window, according to *the Times*‘ Paul Joyce on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/_pauljoyce/status/1219591972291301377?s=20).

The Swiss is reportedly [wanted by Roma and Sevilla](https://twitter.com/_pauljoyce/status/1219591972291301377?s=20), who are keen on signing him on loan this month.

Liverpool have no interest in letting him go until the end of the season, however, when they will demand €30 million for his services.

Shaqiri is currently [sidelined](https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/383523-xherdan-shaqiri-fitness-update) with a calf injury, meaning he will miss Thursday’s trip to Wolves.

### Read Liverpool Verdict

Allowing Shaqiri to leave on loan in January makes no sense, in my opinion, so Liverpool have made the correct decision.

The 28-year-old is a good squad player to have around, as shown by his [excellent performance](https://www.thisisanfield.com/2019/12/liverpool-5-2-everton-player-ratings/) against Everton last month.

I believe Shaqiri will move on at the end of the season, having struggled to ever nail down a regular first-team spot.

Roma or Sevilla would suit him well, allowing him to be a key man in a slightly slower league.
