"City are looking at Dumfries and Man United have been strongly linked with him over the years, but he's remained at Inter Milan. Dumfries is a top player, he's proven that at the highest level for club and country, but he's 29 now and that might be a concern for Man City about his age. He's a top player, a real attacking full-back who is probably better going forward than he is defensively, and he would be a good fit for Man City."
"Dumfries would tick a lot of boxes for them and would be perfect for the Premier League, he's got great power and pace and an eye for goal as well. He's under contract until 2028, so it would take a decent fee to get him out, but he has admitted he would be open to a move to the Premier League, so that will be seen as a 'come and get me' plea."
"The only concern for Man City would be his age, so if they decide that's an issue then maybe it will leave the door open for somebody else like Man United to swoop in."
Denzel Dumfries is a 29-year-old Inter Milan right-back/right wing-back who has 67 caps for the Netherlands and has been at Inter since 2021. He is regarded as a highly attacking full-back with power, pace and an eye for goal, often stronger going forward than defensively. Manchester City and Manchester United have shown interest in signing him. He remains under contract until 2028, which would require a significant transfer fee. He has signalled openness to a Premier League move, while concerns about his age could influence Manchester City's decision and open a window for Manchester United.
