New twist in De Vrij’s contract talks: Barcelona, Inter and Napoli interested

New contract talks between Stefan De Vrij and Lazio have been put on hold again, reports in Italy claim.

The Dutchman was reported to be close to signing a contract extension with the Serie A giants although his new deal would have expired in 2018 and would have included a € 25 million release clause valid for both Serie A and foreign clubs.

​Now, reports in Italy claim de Vrij’s contract extension is not a done deal. The player’s agents are reported to have changed their mind and for now the player won’t sign a contract extension with the Serie A giants.

​Barcelona and Inter are reportedly interested in welcoming the player’s services and Napoli have also joined the race to sign the talented centre-back who will see his contract expire at the end of the season.

De Vrij’s signature on a new Lazio contract seemed only to be a matter of time, but this new twist gives Inter, Barcelona and Napoli a massive transfer boost.
