Inter have made the asking price clear for wingback Denzel Dumfries during the summer transfer window clear, with incoming Chelsea coach eyeing up a move for the Dutch World Cup star.
This according to Italian news outlet Repubblica.it, who report that the 27-year-old is a major target for the Argentine who is expected to take over at Stamford Bridge, and that the Nerazzurri would expect a fee of at least €40 million for his signature.
Dumfries’s future at Inter has looked uncertain for some time now, with the 26-year-old former PSV man having been strongly linked as a possible sale during the summer transfer window should the Nerazzurri need to bring in cash from the market.
The likes of Chelsea and Manchester United have been reported to be interested, whilst Barcelona have reportedly also enquired about the Dutchman for the summer transfer window.
However, in March Gianluca Di Marzio reported that Dumfries is no longer a major target for Chelsea as he had been in the past.
The situation at Stamford Bridge has been in flux, however, with Graham Potter removed as head coach just a few months after taking over, replaced with Frank Lampard on an interim basis.
It is widely expected that former Tottenham Hotspur and Paris Saint-Germain boss Pochettino will be the man appointed to take charge on a permanent basis.
The 51-year-old is already starting to make plans for the Blues’ squad, including at fullback.
According to La Repubblica, Nerazzurri wingback Dumfries is a target for the Argentine coach.
This will mean that the Premier League giants’ interest in Dumfries is set to be revived during the summer window as they look to revamp the squad for their new coach.
Inter would be ready to listen to offers for the Dutchman, who arrived from PSV during the summer of 2021, but would expect a bid of at least €40 million to get a deal done.
