I'm not sure either. I thought it was dead in the water when he went to Roma and I thought he even came out and said he had no interest in Liverpool at all. After listening to Brendan Rodgers' press conference, he seems confident that there will be a signing this week and from everything that is being reported it will be either Ramirez or Borini. Very odd situation

Yeah, Roma just bought out the co-ownership deal from Parma a couple of weeks ago and Borini came out saying he was a Roma player and excited about working with Zeman etc etc.

It's still possible, of course, that Zeman/Sabatini are deciding this and not Borini.

However, Borini seems to fit Zeman's style as perfectly as he would/has Rodgers'.



If he does go, I'm glad it may be to Liverpool but I'd be really surprised just since there's been no reason to think Roma are in a situation where there's need to let any younger talent go even if Destro is brought in.


Also, with fans already angry (and even Totti muttering) about the lack of any matured, big name signings, selling Borini would set off an epic firestorm.
