Trio of Premier League clubs circle for Feyenoord's de Vrij

Feyenoord defender Stefan de Vrij has emerged as a target for three Premier League clubs according to reports.

The Daily Star is among those news outlets reporting that Liverpool, Tottenham and Manchester United are all showing considerable interest in the 22-year old Dutch centre-back.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers is believed to be keen on strengthening his defence this summer after his leaky back four coughed up vital goals in their Premier League title pursuit.

Tottenham's interest comes from the fact that they are on the hunt for Ajax manager Frank de Boer who reportedly admires nine-time Holland international de Vrij.

And Manchester United have been credited with an interest as they close in on current Dutch boss Louis van Gaal who gave de Vrij his first international cap in August 2012.
