Last definitive update on Aquilani. Liverpool found the way to pay 'a' golden handshake without making angry the fans. Initially the request was for 5m €, and Aquilani would have accept to spam his wages on a longer contract with Fiorentina. Now the deal is slight different: no official handshake, but Aquilani will receive 4m € in his first two years deal that should be payed 50/50 by Fiorentina and Liverpool. Then, in his last year, Aquilani will finally receive only 1.5m €

"spam his wages"

"spam his wages"

Fair enough if he wants to go home, but paying him off leaves a bit of a nasty taste to be honest.

I just want rid of him now

Anything that we can save in terms of wages I'd be happy with

Hes taken the piss for far too long now

Oh definitely.

It's just that if we were pushing him out of the door and freezing him out then yeah, I could understand him wanting a pay off.

He's done **** all other than take the piss, drain us of a lot of money and then wants more to go. Pisstake.

We've stitched him up good and proper there.

[Muddled]

So we only pay €3.5m instead of €5m? Well that makes me feel a whole lot better. Truly tremendous.

Fiorentina co-owner Andrea Delle Valle has announced the signing of Alberto Aquilani from Liverpool on a three-year deal.
Reports in the Italian morning newspapers had suggested a deal had been thrashed out overnight that would see the 28-year-old end his unhappy spell on Merseyside in which he made just 23 appearances for the Reds.

But Delle Valle, the billionaire Italian businessman who part controls the Florence club, today told Sky Sport 24: "Aquilani is ours."

Details of the deal are unclear at the moment but it had been claimed that Liverpool were willing to pay part of Aquilani's wages to get him off their books.

The move will see the ex-Roma star, signed by Rafael Benitez in 2009 for £20million as a replacement for Xabi Alonso, start his third straight season in Serie A after two loan spells at Juventus and AC Milan.
