Liverpool FC have confirmed that Alberto Aquilani has signed a 5-year deal with the Reds after passing a stringent medical.
There was some speculation earlier today that the deal had fallen through due to a snag in the medical procedure, but as has been confirmed, this is not the case.
As was expected, Alberto is now overcoming an injury he picked up last season, so for now we can only wish him a speedy recovery.
The official website said:
“Liverpool FC confirmed this evening that Alberto Aquilani has successfully completed a medical and agreed a 5-year contract with the club.
The player will now continue his rehabilitation from an ankle operation under the guidance of Liverpool’s medical team, and is expected to be fully fit in approximately 4-8 weeks time.”
Welcome to Liverpool FC, Alberto!
