Agent admits Lazio will treat Chelsea 'differently' in Candreva talks

The agent of Antonio Candreva cannot predict what will happen this summer to the Lazio midfielder.

Candreva has been linked with Chelsea and Inter Milan.

“I went to see the Italy game and I crossed paths with (Lazio President Claudio) Lotito in the airport," agent Federico Pastorello told Sky Sport Italia.

“We took advantage of the situation to exchange a few opinions. Lotito values Candreva very highly and he is right, because in the last five seasons with Lazio he scored nearly 50 goals and is an absolute first choice in the Nazionale.

“From what we've seen so far at Euro 2016, he's the best performing Italy player, so it's only natural that expectations are high.

“The price-tag is not just dictated by the value of the player, but also the club that is asking for him. If a Premier League club comes in for Candreva, they'd get a different request to an Italian club."
