The negotiations have clearly moved on very quickly, as his transfer has now been completed. He has cost the European champions £7.25m.
The end of Shaqiri?
In the long run, Minamino could end up being a successor to Roberto Firmino. For now, though, he is still a right winger, and that is where he has predominantly played so far this season. With nine goals and 11 assists in 22 matches, he brings plenty of creativity and danger in front of goal, and should prove to be a more than useful addition to a squad already full of talent.

His arrival, though, could mean the end of the road for one player currently at Jurgen Klopp’s disposal: Xherdan Shaqiri. The Switzerland international has done well since joining from Stoke City last term, with him picking up six goals and five assists in 30 matches last term. However, he has been linked with a move to Galatasaray in the Super Lig recently due to his lack of playing time, and that is surely only going to be reduced with the 24-year-old coming in.

Harry Wilson’s form on the south coast could also be a reason why the 28-year-old could be out of the door. The Wales international is having a good campaign on loan at Bournemouth – he is their top scorer with six goals – and he may be one that Klopp wants to look at for the future considering he is just 22 years of age, and primarily plays on the right-hand side.
Therefore, with two other players fighting Mohamed Salah for a sport in the first team, there seems to be little need for Shaqiri. Having cost £13m in 2018, the former Inter Milan forward’s days at Anfield look to be numbered. It seems slightly unfortunate – he has not done particularly badly recently – but it seems that Klopp may want to go in a different direction. Given his track record so far, you’d be a brave man to bet against him being proved right if that is the case.
In other news, this praise from a footballing legend is as good as it gets for Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.
