Zappacosta: “Inter Had Been After Me But I’m Focused On Chelsea”

Chelsea defender Davide Zappacosta discussed the interest from Inter over the summer while reaffirming his commitment to fighting for a place in the Blues team.

“Could I return to Italy? Yes, Inter had been after me. My agent Alessandro Lucci had told me about their interest, although I have always remained focused on Chelsea,” the 26-year-old confirmed in an interview with Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

“Could I return to Italy in January? I have three more years on my contract here and I only want to think about doing well with Chelsea.
