Liverpool FC’s misfiring front man Fabio Borini is set for a loan move to North East strugglers Sunderland according to The Daily Mail.
Italian striker Borini promised a lot when he arrived at Anfield last season, he came with a glowing report from manager Brendan Rodgers and the youngster started well enough with a goal in the Europa League qualifier at Anfield.
However, things went wrong pretty quickly from that moment on as he injured his ankle and was out for a significant period of last season.
When he returned in the new year, he found himself on the fringes of the first team after the signings of Sturridge and Coutinho.
The injury jinx struck again as he dislocated his shoulder and only returned with 2 games left of the 2012-2013 season.
After a summer playing for Italy in the European U21 Championships where he scored 2 goals, hopes were high for Fabio this season.
Unfortunately it has not worked out that way and it now appears that Rodgers will be happy to let Borini leave on loan once the Reds confirm the loan signing of Victor Moses from Chelsea.
Perhaps a season playing regularly in the Barclays Premier League will help Fabio and in the long term benefit Liverpool, only time will tell.

why on earth should BR allow FB to go on loan.fsg is very stingy.For me borini is far better than useless aspas who can’t close somebody down,what about the marquee signing becos we luckingly got three wins, br now thinks our squad has depth “FOOLS” Y.N.W.A
This is Brenda it would bring conflict keeping him aon the benxh plz now lets dfend our back of the net
BR is beginning to stamp his mark..no matter who the player,if you dont perform than you dont deserve to be at Liverpool. Borini was given chances but failed to impress. I believe BR will acheive great success by not being biased like this.. Ruthless and not afraid to take action. Watch out Allen,you might be next.
Sorry..sorry..i forgot something. Good luck Fabio, hope you will have a great time playing at your new team even if its only for loan.
Should have sold him not loaned . Never good enough for LFC
