Lazio are on the verge of signing Fabio Borini from Sunderland in a deal worth a total of €5.5m.
The 26-year-old is seen as an ideal understudy to first choice centre-forward Ciro Immobile, therefore releasing Filip Djordjevic.
According to Il Messaggero newspaper, Borini would arrive on loan for €1m with obligation to buy at the end of the season for another €4.5m.
It would be a return to the Stadio Olimpico, as Borini had played for Roma in 2011-12 and was sold to Liverpool for €13.3m.

This season, Borini contributed just two goals in 24 Premier League appearances for the Black Cats, who were relegated from the Premier League.
He had also been linked with Milan over the last few weeks.
