Centre Back: Stefan de Vrij (Lazio)
Lazio center-back Stefan de Vrij has enjoyed a breakthrough season at Lazio and has been central in their highly successful league campaign. They are third at the moment and are aiming for Champions League qualification.
The Dutch international has made 39 appearances for the Italian club this season and has also pitched in with 6 goals. He has brought a sense of authority to their backline and has helped to keep 8 clean sheets in the league.
He has rejected a new contract at Lazio and is almost certain to make a move away. Many clubs have been linked with the 26-year-old and Inter Milan is believed to be ahead in the race to sign him.
Centre Back: Giorgio Chiellini (Juventus)
A surprise name makes the cut as Juventus' Chiellini finds himself out of contract this summer. The club is yet to offer the veteran defender an extension.
Even at 33 years of age, Chiellini continues to perform at the highest level. He is nearing 700 appearances for club and country and has been a mainstay at Juventus since 2005. A classic no-nonsense defender and one of the finest of our generation.
He has been the mainstay in the Juventus defense this season which has conceded just 18 times in the league.He still has enough capacity to play for a couple of seasons and it is likely that Juventus will offer him an extension before the year which he will be happy to sign.
