Inter Milan talisman Denzel Dumfries could miss the upcoming Supercoppa Italiana mini-tournament in Saudi Arabia.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Dutch wingback continues to feel pain in his ankle.
Denzel Dumfries suffered a nasty injury during Inter’s home win over Lazio on the eve of the November international break.
Though the issue seemed innocuous at first, the 29-year-old is still unable to return to action.
Furthermore, Dumfries could be absent from Inter’s high-stakes Super Cup showdown against Bologna next week.

Cristian Chivu had hoped to have his starting wingback ready for Tuesday’s clash against Liverpool.
However, after missing Inter’s last Champions League game, Dumfries could skip two more matches.
Indeed, it’s now a near-certainty that he won’t travel with the squad to Genoa on Sunday.
Moreover, there’s only a slim chance he’ll be fit for the Riyadh-held Super Cup.
On a more positive note, Matteo Darmian, who sustained a calf injury in September, is on the verge of recovery.
seems that we will (pretty soon) have to search not for a proper substitute, but for a starter for the right back position!
actually we’ve been needing the starter for his post since years ago, but whenever we try to look for players he comes out on perfect performances lol
