The Nerazzurri man is reportedly stalling contract negotiations as he waits for the Red Devils to make an offer.

Denzel Dumfries has put contract negotiations with Inter Milan on hold as he considers a potential move to Manchester United, as per The Athletic

Dumfries’ Inter Milan situation

The Dutch full-back has entered the final year of his contract at the San Siro, and while Inter are keen to extend his stay, Dumfries is prioritising exploring other options.

Erik ten Hag’s side have expressed interest in the player, and a potential swap deal involving Aaron Wan-Bissaka has been discussed despite West Ham United's interest in the former Crystal Palace defender. However, the Red Devils are also considering other options, including Bayern Munich's Noussair Mazraoui.

Inter face a challenging situation as they risk losing Dumfries for free next summer if a contract extension cannot be agreed upon, and the club are determined to avoid a repeat of the Milan Skriniar situation, where the defender left on a free transfer to Paris Saint-Germain.

What comes next?

Dumfries made 31 appearances for Simone Inzaghi’s men as Inter claimed a 20th Scudetti, scoring four times and setting up five en route to his first league title win at the Serie A club. 

The Dutchman has not featured in pre-season for Inter after his extended holiday after participating for the Netherlands at Euro 2024, featuring five times before the Oranje's semi-final loss to England

If the wing-back departs this summer, he will end his Inter career with 98 Serie A appearances and 132 altogether.
