Premiership: Leeds sell Dacourt to Lazio

Leeds United have today sold Oliver Dacourt to Lazio.

No figure has been released on the fee, but Italian sports daily Gazzetta dello Sport reported this morning that Dacourt would move to Rome for €25m.

Dacourt's future has been in doubt in recent weeks following the revelation that Leeds may have to sell players if they do not qualify for European competition next season.

The French midfielder had been linked with Juventus after reports that he was unsettled at Elland Road, but he later denied that he wanted to leave the club.
