Bayern Munich honorary president Franz Beckenbauer has claimed that the club is willing to sell winger Xherdan Shaqiri during the January transfer window.

The 23-year-old Swiss international has been linked with a host of European teams in recent months because of a lack of first-team action at the Allianz Arena.

Shaqiri's current deal with German champions Bayern is due to expire in 2016.

"Bayern have already sent out a signal and indicated to him that he can probably go in the winter break, when he wants," Beckenbauer told Sport1. "I think it's a shame because he is a great talent."

Juventus and Liverpool are among the clubs to have been linked with Shaqiri since the summer.
