The Lazio centre-back has been linked with Inter Milan and Liverpool in the recent past. But according to Mediaset via Talksport, Milan sporting director Piero Ausilio has refused to admit that his side are interested in De Vrij.

This has now made Liverpool the favourites to land the defender which would see the Reds adopt a Dutch centre-back pairing in the form of De Vrij and Van Dijk.
