 Stoke City are hopeful of making Xherdan Shaqiri their record signing from Inter Milan on Tuesday, just a month after the deal appeared to be off. The Switzerland winger, 23, was at the Britannia Stadium on Sunday and watched as Stoke lost 1-0 to Liverpool. The fee for Shaqiri, will be higher than the £10m the Potters paid Tottenham for striker Peter Crouch in 2011. The ex-Bayern Munich star scored three goals in 20 games for the Italians. He has scored 17 times for his country in 46 appearances.
