The 25-year-old defender’s contract with Lazio expires next summer but despite months of negotitions, the two parties are yet to reach an agreement over a new deal.
With the Dutchman preparing to enter the last six months of his contract, a number of clubs are keeping a close watch on his every movement in Rome at the moment.
Liverpool and Everton have been keeping tabs on the Netherlands international and Inter Milan also recently re-joined the transfer chase for the Dutchman.
AC Milan showed an interest in De Vrij and it has been claimed that they held talks with the player’s representatives and made a lucrative contract offer.
