In a recent interview with Swiss newspaper Blick! former Nerazzurri player Xherdan Shaqiri reflected on his short time with the club. During which he spoke about his relationship with Roberto Mancini, the manager of the nerazzurri: “I with him have never had any problems. Only, he has often changed his opinion on me”. Speaking of his experience at Inter, Shaq revealed an anecdote: “One time I was injured and I needed to be ready for a game. They told me that there was a miraculous healer who lived in the mountains. I drove for half an hour in a car to have been manipulated by an old man, but he did not help me at all. This is also why Stoke City was the best choice: here there are seven physiotherapists, who will examine me everyday: hips, feet, legs. Everything in a professional manner”.
Shaqiri did not want to hear talk of Stoke City as a demotion after experiences at Bayern Munich and Inter: “I have heard this story a few times, the most important thing is that I can grow and I can only see this at Stoke City. I am still young. I did not expect that this choice would be such a good one. In the Premier League however in the last four months I have played in all matches, apart from those where I was injured at the time. This shows that I have made the right decision and that I am on the right track”.
