Liverpool to swap Borini with Onazi

Reports emanating from Italian media claim Lazio could receive Fabio Borini in exchange for Nigerian midfielder Eddy Onazi to Liverpool.

It would be a return to Rome for the striker, but on the other side, as he previously played for Lazio’s arch rivals Roma.

According to La Repubblica, the Biancocelesti have spotted Borini as the player they want in exchange for Onazi.

Ogenyi ‘Eddy’ Onazi is 22 years old and has already semented his place as a starter in the Nigeria senior team squad.

Borini is 23 and rejected numerous offers over the summer in order to fight for his place at Liverpool.

However, after months on the bench, he too is considering a return to Italy.
