Lazio are continuing their talks with Chelsea as they attempt to strike a deal for Davide Zappacosta.
According to Calcio Mercato, Lazio and Chelsea are in talks over a deal to send Zappacosta to Italy for the rest of the season.
Lazio are hoping to secure a loan for Zappacosta, with the option to make it permanent at the end of the season. However, they do not want the option to be obligatory.
Zappacosta has found game time hard to come by this season, especially in the Premier League, with Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta ahead of him in the pecking order at Stamford Bridge.
The Italian international joined Chelsea from Torino in 2017 for a fee in the region of €28m and has made 45 appearances for the club to date.
He has also been capped 13 times by Italy, after making a name for himself in the Serie A with Torino.
