BAYERN MUNICH's chief executive Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says the club have not received an offer for Xherdan Shaqiri despite reported interest from Liverpool.
The youngster only joined Bayern last summer from FC Basel but failed to make much of an impact in the face of fierce competition for places.
And the situation does not look like improving next season after Bayern added Mario Gotze and Thiago Alcantara to their squad.
Nevertheless, the Champions League winners seem reluctant to lose Shaqiri, who at 21 still has plenty of time to realise his sizeable potential.
Rummenigge said: "Nobody has called about Shaqiri. Right now there are no plans (to sell)."
"The coach is completely satisfied with him."
And in a blow to Liverpool's hopes Rummenigge also hinted that Bayern may have already closed for business ahead of the new season.
He said: "I think we will go into the season with the current squad."
Whilst a loan move for the Swiss international still seems like a possibility, Liverpool have reportedly ruled out making such a move, preferring to sign the winger on a permanent deal.
