Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan has turned down the opportunity to join Liverpool and is keen on staying with the Giallorossi.
The 26-year-old Belgian international is currently co-owned by Roma and Cagliari, however the capital club remain interested in signing the player outright and will address his contract situation as soon as they acquire the Isolani’s half of Nainggolan’s rights.
According to reports in Il Tempo, Nainggolan rejected the chance to join Liverpool in a deal that would have seen the tireless midfielder earn around €4 million per season, but he is seeking an increase of his current €1.5 million salary at Roma and it is rumoured that he would want to double his present earnings.
Nainggolan has spent his entire professional career in the Italian game having started out with Piacenza, where his performances were noted by Cagliari and he sealed a move to the Serie A side in 2010.
