Pezzella was named Fiorentina’s captain at the beginning of last season, but Calciomercato.com writes he will be replaced by Chiesa.
Consequently, a meeting has been set up between the 28-year-old and club officials on Monday to ease the tension.

The website writes a move away cannot be ruled out and that while Milan have already turned down the Argentine, the Roma track is ‘more viable’ as they seek a centre-back partner for Gianluca Mancini.
However, it is understood the Viola are demanding a fee in the region of €20-25m for Pezzella, while they have taken such a stance to convince his Italian teammate into staying.
The stopper had been given extra time off in light of his participation at Copa America but has already returned to base.
