Roma drop Borriello and Destro for US tour

Marco Borriello and Mattia Destro are left out of Roma’s US tour, fuelling reports of an exit for the senior striker.

The news comes on the same day as Italian papers suggest a deal is close to sign Gervinho from Arsenal for €8m.

Borriello returned to Roma this summer after a loan spell at Genoa, who were unable to agree terms for a permanent move.

It is reported that negotiations could resume for an exchange between Borriello and Genoa-owned Alberto Gilardino.

There are also suggestions of interest from Malaga, though Borriello has reportedly turned down a move to Tottenham.

As for Destro, he joined the Giallorossi from Siena last summer, but struggled to make an impact amid injuries.

The 22-year-old scored six goals in 21 Serie A games last season, but is out injured again until September.

Borriello to open a bank in future ?

He'd probably loan too much out and screw up the economy

will Papiss Cisse play with Borriello if Newcastle loan him?

Cisse "I never said Borriello is a loan shark"

Cisse "My religion does not permit me to play alongside players who have more loan interest value than Wonga."

Yup but as sub ?

He misses way too much.Even though he's technically good his finishing is worse than Matri.
Now i know players would improve under Conte,he's not exactly a necessary purchase plus Roma wouldnt sell anyway.
I'd rather keep Quag as sub.

i prefer borriello than matri though......
