Barclays Premier League club, Liverpool, have reportedly offered out-of-favour striker, Fabio Borini and £8 million for Nigeria international midfielder, Ogenyi Onazi.
.
According to reports in the English media over the weekend, Onazi is now a main target for Brendan Rodgers to solve his team’s holding role in the midfield as they struggle in the Premier League this term.
.
The Reds are using Borini as a bait in the planned bid since the Italian striker has long been admired by the Rome club.
.
It is not the first time that Rodgers will be linked with a move for the Nigerian midfield enforcer. In the summer, Liverpool made an attempt to hook the Lazio man without success.
.
Liverpool instead brought in Emre Can from Bayer Leverkusen to plug the hole in their midfield, but now could make the move for Onazi in January.
.
Onazi has made eight league appearances for Lazio this season and has one assist.
