Liverpool are reportedly considering a move to sign Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan to solve the club’s right-back issues.
Arne Slot’s side have lacked consistency at right-back this season following the exit of Trent Alexander-Arnold last summer. Conor Bradley’s season-ending injury and Jeremie Frimpong’s underwhelming debut season has contributed to regular change in the role.
Dominik Szoboszlai has featured at right-back on occasion, while fellow midfielder Curtis Jones has deputised in the position in recent weeks.
As a result, The Telegraph are reporting that Liverpool are weighing up an offer for Dumfries, who has a €25m release clause in his contract at Inter.
The Netherlands international has had an ankle issue that has disrupted his season and could be allowed to move on as Inter raise funds for a rebuild.
At 30, he’d deviate from Liverpool’s usual recruitment profile, but his power, pace and availability make him a feasible option to improve defensive depth.
Dumfries has made 205 appearances for Inter across the last five seasons, scoring 27 goals. He’s won two Serie A titles with the club and has twice reached the Champions League final.

As far as I’m concerned, Liverpool remain the worst football team when it comes to signing players. I can everyone that all these good players they scout will end up playing for other clubs. That’s Liverpool for you. they only know how to bring good players out for other teams to buy. Mark my words
Sell Vandijk ( his legs are gone) and bring in Van De Ven to pair with Konate as 1st choice CB pairs, sell Gomez too, Jacquet and Leoni as backup CBs. Bradley and Luca Stephenson at RB and Kerkez and Tshimikas at LB. Sell Endo, Curtis, MacAllister and Bajcetic and bring in Matteus Fernandes and Mamadou Sangare, keep MacConnell as homegrown backup and send Nyoni on loan. Buy Bowen/Trincao for RW and Frimpong as backup. Buy Abde Ezzanzouli/Mika Godts/Bazoumana Toure for LW and Rio Ngumoha as backup. Keep Gakpo as backup to Isak and Ekitike or for LW. Buy Diogo Costa from Porto as 1st choice keeper and keep Mamardashvili(he needs to work on his distribution and calmness with ball, shot-stopping is good), 2nd choice and Woodman as 3rd choice. That’s my dream summer transfer wishlist.
