The transfer market is shaking and Unai Emery-led Aston Villa have their eye on Denzel Dumfries. According to sources close to Italian club FC Inter News, the 27-year-old Inter Milan winger has attracted interest from Villans, who have held preliminary talks with his agent in search of a possible move in the next transfer window.
Dumfries has become a prominent figure since arriving at Inter and has proven his worth in Serie A. The Dutchman was a key player in the Nerazzurri’s plan, contributing with goals and assists in his 116 appearances for the team. However, his contract expired in the last 18 months, which has led to speculation about his future and attracted the attention of several top clubs.
Manchester United also want Dumfries
Among those interested is Manchester United, who would like to strengthen their right-back with Dumfries. With players like Diogo Dalot and Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the squad, the Red Devils recognize the need to invest in a quality full-back and the Netherlands international fits their search profile.
However, Aston Villa are not far behind in the Dumfries dispute. The Birmingham club are also looking to improve their defensive line and see the Inter player as an ideal option to strengthen their right flank. With Matty Cash starting in the position, the Villans have begun discussions with Dumfries’ representatives to secure his signing.
With both Premier League clubs showing clear interest in the Dutch full-back, it remains to be seen who will emerge victorious in this battle for his signing. Denzel Dumfries’ future appears to lie in the English league and it will be fascinating to watch how events unfold in the coming months.
