Come back too the name of Denzel Dumfries among the possible names coming out on the market. Chelsea are wooing the Dutch winger, who however has a very high price. La Gazzetta dello Sport explains: “The Dutchman’s name had already emerged in the days of the Lukaku affair, because the coach Tuchel had indicated in the right wing a possible technical counterpart to be put in place in the deal. Then the Lukaku negotiation has took another turn. But the name of Dumfries has not disappeared from the London notebooks. This is why the Blues made the move yesterday, testing the ground again with Inter. A request for information on the player’s situation, which evidently continues to taste.

Inter’s response was peremptory: it is not for less than 40 million euros. It is a high rating, but the Nerazzurri have no intention of moving, they have given no room for maneuver. The figure was considered excessive by the London club. But the file should not be considered closed. The parties will update, Inter also expects a possible evolution in the coming days. It would not be an easy farewell to manage: on the flanks the Nerazzurri club has already lost Perisic, the possible sale of Dumfries would force them to find another winger on the market. Certainly, Chelsea’s movements are not very codifiable, the change of ownership has somehow also caused confusion and it becomes difficult to understand even the real moves of the London club. “
