Chelsea reportedly tageted Inter Milan wingback Denzel Dumfries in January and the Italian club look set to add to their defensive ranks in the transfer window
Inter Milan may have handed Chelsea a boost over reported target Denzel Dumfries.
Instead, the 27-year-old finished the season by reaching the Champions League final with Inter, but suggested he may still be on the move when asked about his future. He said: “When (Inter) get back together, despite this defeat, we will be hungry for victory next season,” he said. “What if I stay at Inter? Yes, at the moment I’m staying at Inter.”
Inter are seemingly already putting their plans in place for next season. Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio has shared that Internazionale have held a “positive meeting” with German defender Yann Aurel Bisseck, who plays for Danish side Aarhus.
Di Marzio reports that the Italian side are set to ‘reach an agreement’ with the 22-year-old ahead of a move this summer. Bisseck is said to have a €7million release clause as Inter boss Simone Inzaghi looks to bolster his defensive options, which could potentially pave the way for Chelsea to revive their pursuit for Dumfires.
The Netherlands international has often been touted with a move away from the San Siro since joining the Milan side in 2021. The full-back has two years remaining on his current contract and would provide competition to Reece James, if he were to arrive at Stamford Bridge.
