Inter defender Stefan de Vrij has been made aware of interest from LaLiga clubs by his agent as he weighs up whether to renew his contract at San Siro.
With De Vrij’s deal expiring at the end of the season, Spanish champions Real Madrid – as well as their rivals Atletico Madrid – have been credited with an interest in him.
Inter will lose Milan Skriniar at the end of the campaign after he reached a pre-contract agreement with Paris Saint-Germain, and fellow defender De Vrij could follow him through the exit door.
Asked about interest from Spain’s biggest clubs after Monday’s goalless draw at Sampdoria, De Vrij said: “These are words from my agent, I try to concentrate on work and on the field.”
However, the prospect of the Netherlands international staying in Milan cannot be ruled out, as he added: “I’m on very good terms with the club. We’re talking and, when there’s news, you’ll find out.”
Inter are now 15 points adrift of Serie A leaders Napoli following their failure to break down Sampdoria, and De Vrij accepts the Scudetto is a lost cause this campaign.
“The 15 points away from Napoli are too many,” he said.
“On the one hand there is a Napoli that is flying by winning every game, on the other there is us, who are unable to bring home certain results.”
