The agent of Fabio Borini claims Liverpool decided against loan discussions to offload the Italian striker. The 23-year-old claims to be happy with that situation, despite having missed out on a switch to a club where regular first team football may have been easier to come by.
Borini's representative says Inter Milan were among those looking to reach a loan agreement on Monday, but were knocked back.
Marco De Marchi told fcinternews.it: "The player still has two years on his contract with Liverpool and they decided not to consider offers for a loan.
"Inter Milan and other very important clubs in Europe wanted him on loan.
"Liverpool didn't accept and then QPR made an offer to buy him immediately. But the proposal for the player was not a proposal for an important player.
"Now Fabio will stay with Liverpool and try to convince the coach to give him a chance. He is used to fighting for things.
"I don't know what will happen in the January market."
