Liverpool could be missing out on another transfer target, with Lazio defender Stefan de Vrij in talks with Lazio over signing a new contract, reports The Sun.

His deal expires in the summer, meaning the Reds could agree a pre-contract deal in January, but latest quotes made from the player hint at a willingness to stay at the Stadio Olimpico.

“Besides playing well as a team there are also a lot of friendships among us, this is a really nice thing. I’m very happy to be here. We are talking to the club right now and I hope to find an agreement,” he said.
