Revealed – How Marco Palestra Arrival Could Affect The Future Of Inter Milan & Dutch Superstar | OneFootball

Inter Milan are reportedly looking to replace long-serving wingback Denzel Dumfries with Atalanta starlet Marco Palestra in the summer.

According to L’Interista, the 21-year-old’s potential arrival could force the Dutchman to leave Serie A.

Indeed, the 29-year-old has spent a large chunk of the 2025/26 campaign in the pits due to a severe ankle injury.

Furthermore, he has struggled for form since returning to action last month.

An affordable €25 million release clause in Dumfries’ contract will come into effect in July, a factor likely to attract interest in the former PSV Eindhoven star.

How Marco Palestra Signing Could Affect Denzel Dumfries Future at Inter Milan

It’s no secret that Inter are in the market for Dumfries’ long-term replacement.

Moreover, the San Siro giants have already identified Marco Palestra as a perfect candidate to take the Dutch wingback’s role next season.

However, Atalanta have slapped a massive €40 million price tag on their in-demand starlet.

Though such a hefty figure threatens to deter Inter, the Nerazzurri seem determined to sign the Italian prodigy.

Meanwhile, Palestra’s arrival could facilitate Dumfries’ exit, with several Premier League clubs vying for his signature.
