New right-back wanted: Bayern set their sights on Italy star | OneFootball

In their search for reinforcements for the right side of defence, FC Bayern are apparently looking to Italy once again. Alongside top talent Givairo Read, another name has now appeared on the Munich club’s list: Denzel Dumfries

The problems in the right-back position have been known at Säbener Straße for years. Konrad Laimer and Josip Stanisic, two players who actually have other roles in the squad, are currently helping out. A long-term solution should follow in the summer

While Givairo Read is primarily a prospect, Denzel Dumfries has a completely different profile. The 29-year-old is under contract with Inter Milan and has plenty of international experience

More than 70 caps for the Netherlands and over 50 appearances in the Champions League speak for themselves. Dumfries is a seasoned professional who could help immediately – which is precisely what could make him interesting for Bayern

Transfer conceivable in the summer

According to information from the Transferfeed portal, Dumfries is considered a possible sales candidate at Inter. The player himself is also said to be considering a move, with a recent change of advisor seen as an indication that there could be movement in his future

However, there are other interested parties besides FC Bayern, with clubs from the Premier League and Spain’s La Liga also reportedly keeping a close eye on the situation

Dumfries would not be an unknown target for Bayern. The Dutch international has already been linked with a move to Munich on several occasions in the past

With an estimated market value of around 25 million euros, the transfer would also be financially moderate – especially compared to other options on the market

Whether Bayern will actually make a concrete move for Dumfries in the summer depends largely on the further course of the poker game surrounding Read. One thing is clear: Munich are looking at different profiles with Read and Dumfries – young development potential on the one hand and immediate experience on the other.
