Andy Diouf shines for Inter Milan in unexpected right wing-back role | OneFootball

According to L'Équipe, left-footed French midfielder Andy Diouf is flourishing for Inter Milan in an unexpected right wing-back role, showcasing a distinctive and hard-to-read skill set.

On Tuesday he duelled with Real Madrid defender Marc Cucurella in the Champions League, a tie that finished 1-2.

Over recent seasons Denzel Dumfries had unsettled defences with direct surges and consistent attacking output, establishing himself among Europe’s most incisive right wing-backs.

His move to Real Madrid this summer could legitimately have been viewed as a major loss for the Milan club.

A midfielder by trade, the Frenchman is now being used wide on the right in a position few anticipated.
