After the ultimatum made by Lazio officially expired yesterday regarding the contract renewal of Dutch international central defender Stefan De Vrij, it is now reasonable to expect the opening of an auction concerning all big European clubs to captue the signing of the former Feyenoord player according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
According to the report despite the fierce competition from Barcelona, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Zenit, Inter is definitely in pole position to sign the player. The Nerazzurri executives have been working for months on this deal, so that he already has an agreement in his pocket based on a five-year contract where he will earn €4.2 million net a year plus bonus.
As already reported, the Beneamata must first of all guard against an attack from Barcelona, who at this point will be able to present their offer on paper. In addition, Chelsea coach Antonio Conte and Atletico Madrid coach Diego Simeone could also be heard regarding the player, without neglecting the Russian track that leads to Roberto Mancini at Zenit St Petersburg.
