Fabio Borini

Latest news from Italy is that we are in negotiations with this lad.

I remember him playing for Swansea and he was pacey and didn't mess about in front of goal.

What i didn't know was that he was only 19/20 at Swansea, i pressumed he was a lot older because of his ability.

Now he is 21 and just scored 10 in 24 games for boy hood club Roma on loan from Parma.

However, apparantly a bid of 15m Euro's has gone in from us and we are talking terms.

He is currently at the Euro's with Italy.

What do you think ?

impressed in our reserve side but never really looked like making the cut at the next level (not that he got much of a chance)

impressed in the Championship and has done well at Roma-Rodgers will be another factor here

could be a good signing for you

i think he's exactly what we need. small nippy player who makes runs in behind the defence like hernandez does for united. he was at swansea with brendan rodgers and also played under rodgers for the chelsea reserve team so i can see it happening.

good player but not sure 15million whether euros or pounds is value for money

by the way i saw him play in the flesh (admittedly in the championship). but he was extremely dangerous against forest in the play offs a few years back.

Chelsea offererd and wanted him to sign a new contract but he wanted to go home to Italy.

Done well at Swansea but it was only championship at the time.

Cant beleive he would be ready to come back already after leaving homesick.

Not sure he is a small nippy player either.

A hard worker with good technique, quite quick but not lightening fast, nearly 6ft as well.

Brendan has to make his mark and I just hope he is good enough.

He was very impressive for Roma last season and improved considerably compared to 3 years ago

Has a lot of potential

I do find it funny tho how the first time I saw him play was when he came off the bench in a league game and missed an open goal
