Rossoneri Round Up for Dec 30: AC Milan Reserve Borini Close To Joining Genoa

Alfredo Pedulla is reporting that Fabio Borini to Genoa is almost a done deal as only some final details are missing. The former Liverpool man is expected to swap sides as he has fallen out of favour under new manager Stefano Pioli and is missing out on game time.

The attacker was used as a utility player in a variety of roles under Gennaro Gattuso but has struggled of late to get into games. Borini has only played 70 minutes this season and he reportedly said yes to the move. He scored three goals for Milan in all competitions last year.
