Liverpool have targeted Southampton and Bayern Munich midfielders Adam Lallana and Xherdan Shaqiri.
Liverpool who recently completed their first summer signing of a striker Ricky Lambert from Southampton might now consider Shaqiri as Southampton have demanded £30 million for Lallana.
Reports said that the reds offered £20 million to the Saints but they rejected it and demanded £30 million for their 26-year-old attacker who will be playing his first World Cup this month.

Both of them have qualities but the reason for rejecting Lallana is that the price is too high. In £30 million, LFC can get a better quality player. Barcelona star Fabregas is valued at £30 million, so why to spend such amount on Lallana.
Paying £30 million will make Lallana overrated because the fans will expect more from him.
Which will be a better signing?
Lallana or Shaqiri?
