The Metro understands Liverpool striker Fabio Borini has distanced himself from a move back to Italy and says that other Italian clubs have missed their chance if they wanted to sign him – because he is happy at Liverpool and has no thought of moving.
The 21 year old, who netted the decisive goal against Holland to send Italy into the final of the Under 21 European Championship, only arrived at Anfield from Roma in July 2012 in a £10.5 million deal and has suffered a poor season as he was plagued with injuries.
Borini’s most recent injury was a dislocated shoulder in February which left him rolling on the Anfield turf screaming in agony, and for many that seemed to be the end of his season, though Borini did manage another four appearances before the end.
The Italian has only scored one solitary goal in his thirteen Premiership appearances for the club, though despite this, and the possibility of a deal for Armenian youngster Henrikh Mkhitaryan, he is adamant that he is happy at Liverpool and has no intentions to leave the club.
He said of the situation: “Am I looking to move abroad? People need to think more about my situation. In Italy people give more time to foreigners than they do to youngsters. I feel really good in England.”

Give him a chance.
Sell him . 2 goals with zero assists in 22 games is pathetic.not good enough
Get rid of this guy, not a good player and never will be. Allen Assaidi and Downing should go too
Borini is not good enough , if we could get 4 or 5 m we should take it
