Manchester United and Real Madrid both tried to sign Marco Borriello when he was at AC Milan, the veteran striker has revealed.
Former Italy international Marco Borriello claims he had the chance to sign for Real Madrid or Manchester United earlier in his career.
The striker, who has scored two goals in two Serie A games for his latest club Cagliari, says he had offers from the Premier League and LaLiga giants when he was at AC Milan.
Instead, he opted to stay in Serie A and signed a long-term deal with Roma, although he did later get a taste of English football in a brief loan spell at West Ham.
