Dunno if this has been posted, but I'm sure there'll be quite a few people happy with this news:
Galatasaray have failed in their bid to land sought after FC Basel star Xherdan Shaqiri.
A statement from club released to the Turkish stock exchange read: "Negotiations with the professional football player Xherdan Shaqiri which began on the 23rd January 2012 have come to an end, we have not agreed terms with [Shaqiri] and his club F.C Basel."
