Totti convinced AC Milan striker Borriello about Roma move

AS Roma are celebrating a double signing coup over Juventus today.

Roma trumped Juve for AC Milan striker Marco Borriello, while Inter Milan defender Nicolas Burdisso chose Roma ahead of the Bianconeri, says Gazzetta dello Sport.

Money was the decisive factor in both cases, while a call from Francesco Totti to Borriello swung the striker's deal in Roma's favour.

Milan also agreed to cover the shortfall in Borriello's agreement as part of their good relationship with Roma.

LOL!!! this article is nonsense. A DOUBLE COUP???. Nobody wanted these TOOLS!. Borriello got REJECTED by Juve for wanting 4million a season, and Juve laughed, and sent him on his way. As for Burdisso who would have been nothing more then a Sub, is not nearly as capable as Bonnucci, and Chiellini. This was a good job by Roma buying useless players.

Maybe Borriello wants to become a thumb sucking spitting idiot like Totti. I thought he was better than that.
