Xherdan Shaqiri (born 10 October 1991) is a Swiss professional footballer who plays as a winger for FC Basel.

Shaqiri began his career at FC Basel, winning honours including three Swiss Super League titles, before moving to Bayern Munich, where he gained nine domestic and continental honours despite playing less frequently. In January 2015, he moved to Inter Milan for a fee of €15 million, and seven months later to Stoke City for a club record £12 million. After Stoke's relegation from the Premier League in 2018, Shaqiri was transferred to Liverpool prior to the following season for a reported £13.5 million fee. He was part of the UEFA Champions League winning squad in his first season. He also won the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup in 2019, as well as the Premier League in 2020, Liverpool's first league title in 30 years.

A full international since 2010, Shaqiri has earned 96 caps and scored 26 goals for Switzerland, making him the country's seventh-highest goalscorer. He represented the nation at the 2010, 2014 and 2018 FIFA World Cups, as well as UEFA Euro 2016 and UEFA Euro 2020.
