Juventus are interested in taking Stefan de Vrij on a free signing if the defender ignores a contract offer from Lazio, Goal understands.

The centre-back's deal expires at the end of the season, but is in talks over a renewal with Simone Inzaghi's side.

The capital club are confident of extending De Vrij's deal until June 2020 and the 25-year-old said last week he is happy where he is.

"I'm very happy to be here, we are talking to the club now and I hope to find an agreement," he told reporters.
