Chelsea are making a move for Lazio defender Stefan de Vrij.
The People says Chelsea have turned their attention to Stefan de Vrij after failing to complete a deal for Kalidou Koulibaly.
The Dutch international is next on the Blues' hit-list as their battle to land the big Napoli defender has stalled.
Lazio will offload De Vrij, 24, for around £15million – and that presents better value than fellow centre-half Koulibaly, who is also wanted by Everton.
Chelsea, who have been in discussions with Napoli since the end of last season, are growing frustrated as the amount of cash being demanded for Senegal international Koulibaly, 25, has rocketed to over £45m.
