Even though almost nothing is done silently at Real Madrid, some of the best transfers this club has made over the years have been the shrewd signing for undervalued superstar players that came without much prior preparation or fanfare.
it appears Real Madrid may be trying that sort of a swoop at the right back position in the same summer as legend Dani Carvajal's departure, landing another superstar level player at the position to pair with the world class Trent Alexander-Arnold, who began to show his true qualities by the end of the La Liga campaign.
Real Madrid are interested in Denzel Dumfries of Inter Milan, and it looks like they are serious about going for the Dutch international. According to a report from Italian transfer insider Gianluca Di Marzio, via Madrid Xtra, not only have Real Madrid formally made a direct approach to Inter Milan for the right wing back, but the Nerazzurri feel so threatened by the interest that they are stepping up their pursuit of replacement options.
Real Madrid want double trouble on the right
A multi time Serie A champion and Champions League finalist, Dumfries first emerged on everyone's radar at Euro 2020 with his robustness, athleticism, and motor. He has blossomed into a truly great all around right back for Inter these days with plus technical ability and creativiity, as well as ingenious sense of timing, producing ridiculous moments with fellow superstar wing back Federico Dimarco, who should be another Real Madrid dream target.
Last season, Dumfries, who is not unfamiliar with links to other big clubs in European football, only appeared in less than half the games in the Serie A season due to injury, but he was exceptional in the Champions League with solid defending and ball progression, as well as crisp passing.
A lot of what Dumfries brings to the table is off the ball, and while he isn't the defensive cover Real Madrid were rumored to be looking for behind Trent Alexander-Arnold, nor is he better than the England international, is he perhaps a market opportunity that is too scintillating to pass up on.
With Enrique Riquelme making big promises of Erling Haaland, Rodri, and other superstars if elected Real Madrid president, there is a chance current club leader Florentino Perez feels more pressure to sign big names at key positions of need like Dumfries, who is an ideal fit on paper for what Jose Mourinho would want to do tactically.
