EVERTON want to sign Lazio defender Stefan de Vrij but could miss out if Chelsea express their interest, according to reports.
Everton manager Ronald Koeman is a keen admirer of fellow Dutchman De Vrij, having coached him at Feyenoord.
The centre-back is out of contract next summer and Lazio have failed to convince him to sign fresh terms.
Inter Milan have also been tracking the 25-year-old but the
Daily Star Sunday claim Everton’s biggest rivals for his signature are in fact Chelsea.
According to the report, the Toffees are willing to spend the £30million required to snap up the Netherlands international.
But even the prospect of playing under Dutchman Koeman may not be enough to convince De Vrij to move to Merseyside.
According to the report,
Chelsea is a more appetising prospect for the ex-Feyenoord player, who would find it hard to reject the chance to play for the Stamford Bridge club.

Lazio have only qualified for the Europa League so he could be our new Jagielka, he has 12 months left on his contract and we could get him at a snip because of that.
