Davide Zappacosta insists he would love to stay at Roma.

The Chelsea fullback injured his anterior cruciate ligament shortly after signing with the Serie A club on loan last August.

Now fully fit, the Italian wants to extend his stay at Stadio Olimpico.

"On a personal level, I would love to stay in Rome for several reasons," Zappacosta told Sky Sport Italia.

"The main one is that I want to show the fans, my team-mates and the management who I am and what I can do.

"I have worked a lot in these months, I have trained and I have made sacrifices to be available at the restart of the championship.

"I am doing some sessions completely dedicated to the knee, because it takes time to recover better from this injury. But now I feel 90 per cent fit."
