Lazio’s Vertonghen interest

Lazio have made Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen one of their top summer transfer targets according to talkSPORT.

Stefan de Vrij is set to leave for free at the end of June when his contract expires and as such, Lazio are in the market for a new centre-back and they have drawn up a lengthy shortlist.

The article adds how it’s being reported by Corriere dello Sport that around 10 players are on the Serie A side’s radar and one of those is Vertonghen.

It adds how Lazio are huge fans of the 30-year-old and are ready to test Tottenham’s resolve with a formal offer in the summer, with Belgian currently having just under 18 months to run on his contract at Spurs, however it adds that any approach from another club is likely to be rebuffed.

Lazio are also said to be tracking Diego Godin of Atletico Madrid and Everton’s Ramiro Funes Mori.
