Alberto Aquilani has said that he feels sad to leave Roma - the club that nurtured him as a youngster - but has hailed Liverpool as one of the biggest sides in the world, stating that he is looking forward to his time with the Reds, should his proposed move reach fruition.

"Obviously I feel very sorry to leave my city and Roma," the midfielder has been quoted in The Liverpool Echo as saying.

"But should the deal be completed with Liverpool, it would be fantastic to play with players like [Steven] Gerrard and [Fernando] Torres and the others.

“Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world.”

When quizzed over his departure from the club he loves, Aquilani said, "I am moving on.

"I want to cordially thank all the Roma fans, who were like neighbours to me and me to them. I was always a fan of Rome and still am."
