Napoli have set an £88m asking price for Kalidou Koulibaly, in an apparent effort to stave off interest from a number of Premier League clubs, including Arsenal.

- Age: 26
- Current club: Lazio
- Contract until: 2018
- Market value: £31.5m
Stefan de Vrij’s market value may be in over £30m, but he’ll be available for free this summer. His contract is coming to an end, and he confirmed on Instagram that he won’t renew it.
According to reports, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool are all interested in signing the defender. Wenger apparently sent scouts to watch the player in action recently. Last November the manager reportedly got in touch with Lazio over a transfer.
De Vrij has now spent three-and-a-half seasons in Italy, and is currently in the midst of a Europa League campaign like Arsenal. So he has the experience, and has performed consistently for Lazio this season.
If the club are looking for a budget option to save their money for other positions, De Vrij could work well.
