As we all know for the 100th anniversary of Boston Red Sox stadium, As Roma v/s LFC will be played in Fenway Park, Boston. LFC is owned by FSG. As Roma is owned by an American from Boston, Thomas Richard DiBenedetto. Amazingly, DiBenedetto is a partner in FSG. SO, the game Roma v/v LFC will be an all American affairs. And the transfer of Borini on cheap from Roma confirms the American Connection. Here is an extract from wikipedia about Roma's owner.

Thomas Richard DiBenedetto (Boston, 3 June 1949[1]), is an American entrepreneur and, since September 27, 2011, the president of the Italian football club A.S. Roma, the 22nd of the club's history.

Moreover, President of Boston International Group since 1983, President of Junction Investors Ltd. (an investment management firm) since 1992; Chairman of the Board of Jefferson Watermann International (a business intelligence firm); Managing Director of Olympic Partners (a real estate investment firm); a director of Detwiler, Mitchell & Co. (a securities firm) and of NWH, Inc. (a software company) until 2006.[2]

DiBenedetto is presently a partner in Fenway Sports Group, who own the Boston Red Sox and Liverpool, among other sport properties.

So Roma is our sister club whistle

Have to say a club in a Major European city playing in one of the most prestigious leagues is a siting duck for an investor

This investment group seem to be very smart, one under achieving club with one of the biggest histories in eurpean football and playing in the most popular league in the world, and another club playing in a glamur city very attractive to stars in the futur
