Udinese have recieved an offer from an English club for playmaker D'agostino.
Anyone know about this? Us? Is he young? Good? Xabi-esque?
 
Just wiki'd him. He's 27 and has one international cap, so I seriously doubt whether he's Xabi-esque.

An Italian footballer, playing as a midfielder for Serie A club Udinese. Usually a playmaker, D'Agostino is best known for his incisive passing and goals from midfield.

[edit] Club career

He was brought up in the Roma youth system and, in 2001, went to Bari with co-ownership rights as part of the deal that brought Antonio Cassano to Roma. He then came back to Roma for the 2003/2004 season but did not figure much[citation needed] and was sent to newly promoted Messina. In the two seasons at Messina he made 42 appearances and scored 4 goals, and was the one of the main reasons[citation needed] for the team's overachievements.[citation needed] In the summer of 2006 he was bought by Udinese.

D'Agostino insists on an Udinese stay. Despite interest from many clubs, the midfielder insists: “I am delighted to see my name linked to big clubs and I have to thank Udinese for this. Obviously I feel proud that there are several parties interested in me, but the Bianconeri are my only thought for now. There is a contract which ties me here for a long time and if I got to this point it’s because the club has had faith in me.â€[1]

He has a passion for horses, and has been quoted as saying that they are "best of all the animals".
 
He won't be a starter ... but for LFC he'd be a decent enough player to have in the squad.

Load of potential at a young age.... I remember watching this guy along with Gilardino, Guiseppe Sculli, Marco Amelia etc back in 2001 .... was almost the king of that generation.

Lost his way a little, but now very much doing a top job at Udinese.

But no, not the standard we should be going after.
 
I read somewhere that Juventus wanted to offload Poulsen and get D'Agostino from Udinese instead.
