Chelsea ‘set to make transfer move for £53m-rated Inter Milan star Denzel Dumfries’ after Reece James’ injury

Published on January 01, 2023 at 07:01 PM

CHELSEA are tipped to bid big for Denzel Dumfries after Reece James’ latest injury woe.

But Manchester United are also keen on Inter Milan‘s £53million-rated right-wing back Dumfries.

Holland star Denzel Dumfries could find himself at the centre of a huge January transfer fight between Chelsea and Man Utd

The Dutchman shone in the World Cup as James missed out.

And after 11 weeks sidelined, the England star only lasted 53 minutes of his comeback, a 2-0 win over Bournemouth on December 27.

James could be absent for another month following his latest knee problem.

And Sport Italia suggest Dumfries could be catapulted into top place on Chelsea chief Graham Potter’s wishlist for the January transfer window.

It’s claimed Blues’ co-owner Todd Boehly is not put off by Inter’s hefty asking price for the 26-year-old.

The Italian giants are said to want between £43m-£53m for the former PSV Eindhoven hero.

But a bigger complication could be rival interest from Dumfries’ fellow countryman Eric ten Hag.

The Old Trafford chief reportedly considers the former PSV Eindhoven hero as an ideal replacement should he lose first-choice right-back Diogo Dalot or Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

Portugal ace Dalot might ponder his future in the summer despite his fine season for United.

And Wan-Bissaka has yet to start for Ten Hag, with old club Crystal Palace thought to be interested.

Cesar Azpilicueta came back into the starting line-up as Potter’s men were pegged back for a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest on New Year’s Day.

Serge Aurier deservedly boosted Forest’s hopes of moving out of the drop zone with a neat equaliser after Raheem Sterling volleyed Chelsea in front early on.
