Manchester City Enters the Race with Barcelona for Denzel Dumfries – Reports
According to Mundo Deportivo, Manchester City has officially joined the race to sign Inter Milan right-back Denzel Dumfries, who is also on Barcelona’s radar. The Premier League champions are seeking a reliable replacement for Kyle Walker, who recently left the club.
Reports suggest City has already opened discussions to bring in the Dutch international and are aiming to finalize a deal swiftly. However, Barcelona will need to act fast, as Dumfries has a €25 million release clause in his Inter contract that remains valid only until July 15.
Dumfries had a standout season with Inter Milan in 2024/25, making 47 appearances, scoring 11 goals, and providing 6 assists across all competitions—impressive numbers for a full-back. His attacking contributions have made him one of Europe’s most sought-after defenders.
Meanwhile, Dumfries’ agent, Jorge Mendes, is reported to be in direct talks with Barcelona to potentially secure the player’s transfer before the release clause expires.
If both clubs are serious, this could turn into a bidding war as the clock ticks toward the deadline.
