Report: QPR, Liverpool 'in discussions' over Fabio Borini
Fabio Borini has looked destined to leave Liverpool for the entirety of the summer transfer window, with a deal being more a question of 'where' and not 'if.'
And that was before the Reds brought in Italian star Mario Balotelli.
With the enigmatic striker now in the fold, his compatriot is all but assured to move elsewhere in search of actual playing time, and Harry Redknapp is reportedly interested in bringing Borini to Loftus Road.

Borini, who was reportedly close to signing with Sunderland in July – where he scored 10 goals while on loan last season – is just one in a list of players who is being linked with a move to QPR as the transfer deadline continues to inch towards its end later today.
Redknapp is reportedly interested in Jermain Defoe, while midfielder Sandro has also been linked with the club. He may not like it, but his moniker as a 'wheeler dealer' exists for a reason.
