Fiorentina have opened talks for forgotten Chelsea man Davide Zappacosta.

The Italian, who joined the Blues back in August 2017 from Torino, has spent the last two seasons out on loan at Roma and Genoa.

Italian newspaper La Nazione has claimed Fiorentina has made contact with Chelsea about signing the right-back.

The Blues are happy to sell Zappacosta as he does not feature in Thomas Tuchel's long-term plans.

They would accept around £6.8m to part with the 29-year-old.

Inter Milan have also shown an interest in signing the former Torino man.
