Inter Milan are facing a nervous wait for the release clause of midfielder Denzel Dumfries to expire.
This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that Barcelona are considering a bid for the Dutchman.
Inter Milan are considering the possibility that they could lose Denzel Dumfries this summer.
The Nerazzurri will not lose the Dutchman for free. He signed a contract extension last year.
However, that new deal includes a release clause of €25 million.
Moreover, Inter are aware that Dumfries is not altogether happy with the harsh words from Inter captain Lautaro Martinez earlier this week.
Then, there is the fact that Dumfries has changed his agent to Jorge Mendes. That could very well be a signal of intent to leave the club this summer.
Inter Face Nervous Wait For Denzel Dumfries Release Clause To Expire
The release clause for Dumfries is the big reason for Inter’s anxiety. They are aware that €25 million would be less than the Dutchman is worth on the market.
However, there is a notable catch. The release clause for Denzel Dumfries is only valid until the fifteenth of July.
Therefore, Inter will have to wait another ten days.
Barcelona are weighing up a move for Dumfries. Meanwhile, there continues to be Premier League interest in the former PSV wingback.
However, if Inter can get through the next ten days without any club activating Dumfries’s release clause, then they will have much more control over the situation and can breathe a sigh of relief.
How our players valued only 20-30mill max while mid table teams can get 30-70mill? this is insane
Someone going to activate the clause right in the edge of transfer market, inter again shoot their own leg here..
I go back to what our Captain said, and why Dumfries was one of the players so offended by it… If you don’t want to be here go!! If we look at the timeliness of last season, Dumfries was out of the team with niggling injuries until he signed his new contract…. Once he got his new contract, with the magic release clause inserted, he’s played out of his skin for 6 months – the best 6 months we’ve ever seen from him- in order to generate Interest for a summer move…. Well played Denzel, but overall, you’re just a poor man’s Hakimi, so let’s move on….
Hopefully DUMFRIES will reject all offer,to stay with Us.
He is practically gone. He has the best agent plus they leaked the clause in public so a bidding war occur. He sacked the previous agent for not having bids till now. Bro is gone and Inter caant fo shit about that. But i feel they knew it also, thats why they signed Henrique pre summer.
They signed Henrique because Drumfies backup was Darmian who couldn’t even be regarded as a wingback to be honest.
