Chelsea signs Torino defender Zappacosta
Premier League champion Chelsea bolstered its ranks with the deadline-day addition of Torino defender Davide Zappacosta.
Chelsea completed the signing of Davide Zappacosta, with the defender having joined from Serie A side Torino for an undisclosed fee.
Zappacosta has reportedly signed a four-year deal with the Premier League champion - Torino having confirmed a move that sees him linking up once again with Antonio Conte, who selected him for Italy's UEFA EURO 2016 squad.
The Premier League champion is said to have paid $A41million plus €2m in bonuses to secure Zappacosta's signature.
Capable of playing in defence or midfield, the versatile 25-year-old - who scored two goals in 56 Serie A appearances for Torino, has become Chelsea's fifth signing of the transfer window.
