The latest reports from SkySports revealed that Stoke have agreed a fee around £12 million for Inter Milan attacker Xherdan Shaqiri.
Shaqiri who spent years at Bayern Munich's bench started only eight games for the Serie A side. He scored only one in them.
The 23-year-old scored 11 goals in 26 starts for the German giants. Despite of his exceptional performance in the World Cup 2014, he failed to make a name at Bayern Munich. However, he lifted two Bundesliga titles and a Champions League title.
The Italian side are in no mood to keep the Swiss attacker at San Siro and are keen to sell him this summer.
Xherdan Shaqiri has netted 17 goals in 46 game for Switzerland.
Shaqiri was also linked with Liverpool prior to his move to Inter Milan but now the Reds have no desire to reignite their interest in the Swiss star player.
