The player in question is Denzel Dumfries, whose future at Inter Mi🉐l🔯an remains somewhat uncertain, with his contract expiring in 2025.

 recently claimed that the 28-year-old is kee🐬n on a potential switch 💜to Manchester United.

Now, Dean Jones haꦛs provided an update on regarding t🐈he Red Devils and Dumfries.

What has Dean Jones said about Manchester United and Denzel Dumfries?

Jones said: “There is a lo༺t of talk a⛎round Manchester United’s move for Denzel Dumfries gathering pace, but it would need Aaron Wan-Bissaka to leave really. Otherwise, there is no room for him.

“Diog♋o Dalot is really valueꦰd but, of course, Dumfries is more of a wing-back and is great at attacking, so that is also something to bear in mind.

“He is st💦ill due to have more talks at Inter about potentially improving his contract at the cl🍃ub.

“If he can’t do that, maybe this move to Manchester United opens up a bit more. I was tol⛎d that Erik ten Hag is a big admirer.”

Denzel Dumfries would be a solid signing for Manchester United

Denzel Dumfries iꦆs a quality player who has just won the Serie A title with Inter and has also won two Italian Cups and three Italian Super Cups.

At 28 years of age, he’s very🍷 much in his prime, and according to Gazzetta, he c🌃ould cost as little as £22million.

Bayer Leverkusen and Netherlands ace Jeremie Frimpong has previously lauded th🔯e reported Manchester Unite🐼d target.

“I will play wherever the coach wants, both wi🌟th Leverkusen and the Dutch national team whenever I get the chance,” he told Ziggo Sport, via , in February.

“This is what every footballer♑ wants. However, I’m aware🌊 of the strong competition in the national team.

“I knew it would be difficult🔴 for me, because Denzel Dumfries is one of the best right-backs in the world.”

Let’s see what happens ꧂in the coming months. Admittedly, it looks as though this move could depend on Ten Hag staying p💖ut at Manchester United.
