Liverpool are cashing in on midfielder Alberto Aquilani.

The Daily Mail says Liverpool are poised to boost their transfer funds by offloading Aquilani to Fiorentina.

Aquilani, 28, who commands an annual salary of more than £6million, was left out of Liverpool's squad for the final game of their North American tour in Baltimore as he discussed a £7m permanent move.

He has spent the previous two years on loan at Juventus and AC Milan.
