As per VoetbalPrimeur, the coming week is a crucial one for Denzel Dumfries. The Inter defender can leave for a reduced fee until July 15, leaving two options.

The Dutch full-back has a 25-million-euro release clause in his contract at Inter. However, this amount is only valid for one more week, as the offer expires on the 15th of July.

FC Barcelona and Manchester City are reportedly interested, according to Mundo Deportivo. Both clubs see Dumfries’ clause as a unique opportunity to strengthen the right flank. Barça are said to have been impressed by Dumfries during the iconic two-legged Champions League match last season.
