Roma are willing to consider offers for Italian playmaker Alberto Aquilani. Aquilani has been a reported target of Liverpool, with the Reds looking for a possible replacement for Real Madrid target Xabi Alonso. When asked about Aquilani, Roma coach Luciano Spalletti said: 'We need to be open and listen to any type of offers that are proposed to us.  'We are not worried, we know what we need to do. There will probably be two or three transfer market deals done and I am convinced we will be able to work well. Roma director Bruno Conti revealed neither Liverpool nor any other club had made an offer for Aquilani. 'The situation as it is right now is that Aquilani will remain until there is a squad that makes an offer,' Conti said. 'Once this happens then we will see.' Aquilani, 25, is under contract with the Eternal City outfit until June 2013. A right ankle injury limited Aquilani to only 14 league appearances for the Giallorossi last season.
