Denzel Dumfries Transfer: Liverpool, Chelsea & Man Utd Battle for £21m Inter Milan Star
Ben McAleer
Denzel Dumfries has been offered to a host of Premier League sides, including Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United, reports TEAMtalk.
The Inter star has long been linked with a switch to England’s top tier, and a move away from Milan could come to fruition this summer.
Dumfries is believed to have a £21m release clause in his Inter contract, which has seen the Netherlands international crop up on a number of radars.
Liverpool weighing up right-back pursuit
The Reds are expected to reinforce their defence this summer despite splashing the cash to strengthen at the back last year.
Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni all joined from Bournemouth, Bayer Leverkusen and Parma.
However, the defending Premier League champions are looking to add experience to their backline, with Dumfries among those that would boost the Merseyside outfit.
Chelsea and United to rival Reds
Liverpool, though, would face competition for the attacking full-back, with Chelsea and United among those believed to be courting Dumfries.
The Blues are already able to call upon Reece James and Malo Gusto at right-back, but the former’s ongoing injury issues may force the club into the market for another defender.
United, too, are looking to bring in a new right-back to provide competition for both Diogo Dalot and Noussair Mazraoui.
Appealing release clause
With such a low release clause, the trio would also have a battle on their hands to sign the 29-year-old, who has made 11 league starts this season.
Manchester City, Tottenham and Newcastle have also been credited with an interest in the former PSV man.
In addition, Dumfries is also attracting watchful glances from the Saudi Pro League as the Middle East nation look to maintain their pursuit of football’s biggest stars.
Inter's Serie A struggles
Dumfries will hope to help Inter return to winning ways when they host Roma this weekend following the international break.
The Nerazzurri are six points clear at the top of Serie A but have failed to win their last three having followed up their 1-0 loss to rivals AC Milan with draws against Atalanta and Fiorentina.
