The agent of Alberto Aquilani has brushed aside reports suggesting the Italy playmaker will leave Roma for Liverpool this summer. The highly-rated 25-year-old is considered a candidate to replace Xabi Alonso, who has been linked with a move to Real Madrid. But Aquilani's agent Franco Zabaglia said: 'Alberto to Liverpool? Let's not say silly things. 'There's no point in even talking about this subject because there is no truth in this. 'The player recently extended his contract with Roma and is working towards recovering and giving his best to the club. Aquilani is under contract with the Eternal City outfit until June 2013. A right ankle injury limited the player to just 14 league appearances for the Giallorossi last season.
