Manchester United 'get' exciting answer from Inter on Denzel Dumfries transfer

Inter have reportedly priced defender Denzel Dumfries at a respectable £26m amid links with Manchester United.

Right-back is one of four areas Erik ten Hag will look to strengthen this summer if he remains in the job amid mounting pressure. United have won just one of their past eight league games with some players coming in for heavy criticism.

The club will listen to offers for all-but-four players - Andre Onana, Rasmus Hojlund, Alejandro Garnacho and Kobbie Mainoo - this summer, including Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Diogo Dalot. Wan-Bissaka had his year-long contract extension triggered in January while Dalot penned a fresh deal last May but neither transaction is sale-proof.

The Dutchman - who predominantly plays wing-back for Inter - could be moved on by Inter this summer and La Gazzetta dello Sport says the Premier League would be the player’s preferred next step.

It adds that the Italians have set a €30m (£26m) asking price for the 28-year-old and that Aston Villa are also keeping tabs on him. There has been little talk of a renewal between Dumfries and Inter and so a move this summer looks increasingly likely.

Meanwhile, United are apparently set to table a bid for Sunderland youngster Chris Rigg. The Northern Echo adds that the Black Cats are anticipating high interest in the 16-year-old, who has scored three times in 22 senior matches this season.
