Liverani is a player who in the space of 10 months has moved from being a Serie C regular to a senior international debut, via an outstanding first Serie A season, with Perugia.
Liverani is a fl player, Rome-born of a Somalian mother and Italian father.
When the coach named Liverani in his squad for the South Africa game, the news was greeted with unqualified acclaim, not so much because Liverani is the first fl footballer to don the famous 'azzurro' (blue) shirt, but more because of his unquestioned talent.

Fabio Liverani is an outside possibility to be named in Giovanni Trapattoni's squad for Japan and Korea after an inconsistent season with Lazio.

 Lazio's Liverani swoop dominates transfer free-for-all
Lazio's audacious transfer swoop for Perugia's Italian international midfielder Fabio Liverani was the highlight Friday on the last day of business before the closure of the Autumn transfer market.
Liverani joins the crisis club for a package worth 14 million dollars with Lazio's young striker Emanuele Berrettoni moving in the opposite way.
Part of the reason could be Rome-born Liverani's admission that he was a keen AS Roma fan and that he had spent a week celebrating when Fabio Capello's side won their first Italian first division title for 18 years earlier this year.

Liverani and his Perugia team-mate Marco Materazzi were named in Giovanni Trapattoni's squad for the match and the veteran coach -- his hand possibly forced by the withdrawal of Lazio's Alessandro Nesta because of an ankle injury -- has already said defender Materazzi, who joins Inter Milan in the summer, will start out.
As for Liverani, Trapattoni would only say "I don't know" on Monday, but in front of his home fans the odds are the 24-year-old Rome-born son of an Italian father and a Somali mother will feature at some stage of the match.
It is a meteoric rise for Liverani, who last season played in Serie C for Viterbese but moved for a pittance to Perugia because the first division side's boss Luciano Gaucci was also owner of Viterbese.
