If Lazio can’t come up with a good enough offer, Casadei could also have other big opportunities around Europe, with AC Milan and Fiorentina among other Serie A clubs interested in the former Inter Milan youngster.
Dutch Eredivisie duo PSV and Feyenoord are also interested in Casadei, Such as La Liga team Real BetisBut it may be that he favors a return to Italy.
Cassaday has been improving well during his time at Inter and it might make sense for him to try another spell in Serie A to revive his career after this challenging period in English football.
Chelsea fans will probably be disappointed that Casadey didn’t make more of an impact as he looked like a smart signing when he first joined.
