Brendan Rodgers' first signing as Liverpool manager did not work out at Anfield, but 10-and-a-half years after walking into Melwood, he is making waves in Turkey.
Fabio Borini joined Liverpool from Roma in July 2012, in a deal worth £10.5million. The Italian later revealed that fellow countryman Mario Balotelli was partly responsible for helping him to agree to the move after he told him that the Reds had the most 'exciting fans'.
But injury and loss of form saw the former Chelsea forward make only 25 appearances for the Reds scoring just three times over two seasons, with a season-long loan at Sunderland in-between. Eventually, he would join the Black Cats on a permanent deal, bringing his somewhat insignificant Anfield career to a close.
