Stoke City are hopeful of completing the club-record signing of Xherdan Shaqiri from Inter Milan on Tuesday.
The Switzerland winger, 23, was at the Britannia Stadium on Sunday and watched as Stoke lost 1-0 to Liverpool.
The fee for Shaqiri, who has 46 international caps, will be higher than the £10m the Potters paid Tottenham for striker Peter Crouch in 2011.
He will be the Premier League club's ninth summer signing, just a month after the deal appeared to be off.
He joined the Serie A side from German champions Bayern Munich in January and scored three goals in 20 games for the Italians. He has scored 17 times for his country.
