Price Tag Revealed For Dortmund Star Bellingham?
Denzel Dumfries has made a big impression on the football fraternity ever since bursting on to the scene at the 2020 UEFA European Championships with the Netherlands.
A move to Inter from PSV Eindhoven followed his impressive showings at the continental showpiece, and his stock has only continued to rise.
The right-back has endeared himself to the Nerazzurri faithful by continuing his notable displays in the famous blue and black of Inter, with the 26-year-old's durability seeing him miss only five games for the 19-time Italian champions during his first season in Italy, in which he racked up five goals and five assists in Serie A.
The Rotterdam native's sparkling performances at the San Siro have continued this season, with his two goals and one assist to date reportedly garnering the attention of United and Chelsea.
