Juventus have approached Bayern Munich’s Xherdan Shaqiri for a move from Munich to Turin, but the Swiss international has turned them down, according to Sky Italia.
Shaqiri joined Bayern Munich from FC Basel in 2012 for a transfer of €11.6m and signed a four-year-contract with the club.
Since joining the German champions, the Swiss international has found it difficult to cement his place in the starting eleven due to form and injuries and has only made ten starts in the league this season.
Shaqiri has now turned down an approach and is happy to fight for his place in the star-studded Bayern Munich line-up.
