Lazio prioritse Depor’s Schar

Lazio have identified Deportivo La Coruna defender Fabian Schar as their replacement for the outgoing Stefan de Vrij, say reports in Spain.

The Swiss international joined Depor last summer after arriving from Hoffenheim and has made 20 La Liga appearances this campaign.

However, the Galician club’s future in the Spanish top flight is in major doubt as they lie second-from-bottom with just 11 matches remaining.

El Desmarque report the 26-year-old is seen as attainable by the Rome-based club and if Depor were to lose their top flight status, an exit would be close to inevitable.

Lazio's defender De Vrij – a Dutch international – is out of contract this summer and has been linked to a host of leading European clubs.
