Lazio star Francesco Acerbi 'could play for any club in Europe' says his agent with Chelsea and Inter Milan eyeing up move for defender

Lazio defender Francesco Acerbi's agent has claimed the centre-back could play for any of Europe's elite sides amid rumours of interest from Chelsea and Inter Milan.

Acerbi has battled back from being diagnosed with testicular cancer in 2013 to becoming a mark of consistency in Serie A in the last few years.

The 32-year-old Italy international first impressed with Sassuolo before securing a move to the Stadio Olimpico in 2018 and is a fundamental fixture in the Lazio side hunting down glory this season.
