According to a report in Bild, ambitious Bundesliga outfit Wolfsburg are closely monitoring the situation of promising winger Xherdan Shaqiri, currently under contract with Champions League hopefuls Basel.

The Wolfe have been in the market for a new winger for quite a while now and sporting director Dieter Hoeness reportedly sees the 19-year-old Shaqiri as the perfect signing for the Bundesliga side.

Shaqiri is a product of the Basel youth academy and has developed into a key player at the Swiss champions since making his first team debut in July 2009. Additionally, the tricky winger has already represented Switzerlands at senior level.

The young attacker's excellent performances haven't gone unnoticed in the rest of Europe and Wolfsburg are facing stiff competition in the race for Shaqiri's services.

Clubs such as Juventus, Liverpool, PSV and Bayern Munich are also believed to be keeping tabs on the young winger. Shaqiri's contract with Basel runs until the summer of 2014, meaning that the attacker won't be available on the cheap.
