Lyon have confirmed they struck a deal to sign Xherdan Shaqiri from Liverpool.
The 29-year-old will join the French side after passing his medical on Monday.
"Olympique Lyonnais is pleased to have finally reached an agreement in principle with Liverpool for the transfer of the Swiss international midfielder, Xherdan Shaqiri, who was a key figure for his country at this summer's European Championship," the press release posted on the club's official website reads.
"Shaqiri, who is encouraged by the OL project, will arrive in Lyon tonight where he will be welcomed by [sporting director] Juninho.
"The finalisation of the transfer remains conditional on the result of the medical examination that the player will pass this Monday morning and the finalisation of the last administrative formalities.
"After intense negotiations with Liverpool, OL thanks the General Manager, Billy Hogan, and the Sporting Director, Michael Edwards, for their availability and for listening to the joint requests of Xherdan Shaqiri and Olympique Lyonnais."
Lyon will reportedly pay £9.5m for the forward. Shaq has made 63 appearances and scored 8 goals for the Reds over three seasons at Anfield.
