Inter Milan have reportedly identified three potential targets to replace the injured Denzel Dumfries in January.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri will strengthen Cristian Chivu’s wingback options next month.

Denzel Dumfries could spend the next couple of months on the sidelines.

Indeed, the Dutchman is about to undergo ankle surgery to address his long-term issue.

Therefore, Beppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio are on the lookout for defensive reinforcements.

With Luis Henrique failing to live up to the billing, Inter have no choice but to sign a new wingback this winter.

Genoa’s Brooke Norton-Cuffy has emerged as a potential solution, though the Griffins are reluctant to sell the Englishman midway through the season.

Therefore, Pisa’s Idrissa Toure might be a more attainable option for the Nerazzurri.

However, Atalanta loanee Marco Palestra remains Inter’s dream signing.

Palestra has excelled at the beginning of his loan spell at Cagliari, and it’s hard to expect the Sardinians to let him leave in January.
