Roma's David Pizarro has given his backing to the Giallorossi's acquisition of Marco Borriello.

The Italian joined the Giallorossi on loan, with the club having the option to purchase him next summer.
"I think names like Borriello can only enrich our already strong squad," he explained to Sky on Friday.
"He brings a lot of enthusiasm. It's important because he is a complete player, able to hold up the ball at times when the team needs to rest. I think it was a very targeted and relevant [transfer] in line with our expectations."
Roma finished second to Inter last season in both Serie A and the Coppa Italia and Pizarro insists consistency is the key to beating the Nerazzurri.
"We have to prove every Sunday that our team is ready. That is the only way to compete with Inter, who are the kings of Italian football and Europe," concluded the Chilean.
The Giallorossi's next Serie A game is on September 11 versus Cagliari.
