Chelsea defender Davide Zappacosta 'too expensive for Lazio'

A report claims that Davide Zappacosta is no longer a priority target for Lazio as Chelsea want too much for the underused full-back.

Lazio are reportedly about to end their interest in full-back Davide Zappacosta due to Chelsea's financial demands.

The 26-year-old has barely featured under Maurizio Sarri this term, being used for a combined 18 minutes from the bench in the Premier League.

Zappacosta is said to be keen on a move away from Stamford Bridge this month, and Lazio had been one of the sides looking to sign him.

Italian outlet La Lazio Siamo Noi suggests that the Biancocelesti have now cooled their interest, however, as there is a difference of opinion between the clubs on the player's valuation.

Chelsea are believed to be seeking £15.5m for Zappacosta, who arrived in West London from Torino 17 months ago when Antonio Conte was in charge.
