Dumfries gave his thoughts on the difference between playing in Serie A and the Premier League.

“The Premier League is a fantastic league, but right now I play in Serie A,” he said.

“But if the opportunity [to play in the Premier League] were to present itself, I’d jump at it.

“I’m happy at Inter,” Dumfries continued. “I’m happy at Inter, but I think I could do well in the Premier League as well.”

“I’d definitely be interested in it,” the Dutchman said. “The Premier League is known for its intensity, while Serie A is one of the top leagues in terms of tactical level.”

“They’re different approaches to football. But the Champions League always offers exciting matches.”

Then, Dumfries spoke about Inter coach Cristian Chivu. “He played for Ajax,” said the 29-year-old. “We obviously talked about it.”

“How the Dutch style of play is different from the Italian one.”

“But his ideas are always very clear. And he has very clear ideas about what he wants.”

“This isn’t anything new to me,” said Dumfries. “And it’s nice that we both know the Dutch school of football.”
