Newcastle United are in talks relating to an offer to bring Denzel Dumfries to the Premier League in the January transfer home window.
What’s the talk?
That’s according to a record by Italian media electrical outlet calciomercato.com, that declare that the Inter Milan right-back’s representative, Rafaela Pimenta, has actually just recently flown to England in order to review a possible bargain for the 26-year-old– with Newcastle, Manchester United and also Chelsea all thought to have actually been spoken to.
The record takes place to recommend that, must any one of the Netherlands worldwide’s 3 possible suitors desire to make a step for the full-back this month, it would certainly cost them in between EUR40m (₤ 35m) and also EUR50m (₤ 44m)– a charge which it is asserted both the Magpies and also the Red Devils think to be too much.
“Breathless”
Considering simply exactly how excellent Dumfries has actually been in Italy considering that signing up with Inter in a EUR15m (₤ 13m) deal back in the summertime of 2021, it is not shocking to find out that Dan Ashworth can be taking into consideration a transfer to bring the protector toSt James’ Park this wintertime.
Indeed, over his 33 looks in Serie A last break, the ₤ 35m-rated ability was in marvelous assaulting type, racking up 5 objectives, signing up 4 helps and also developing 6 large possibilities for his colleagues, in enhancement to taking approximately 1.2 shots, making 0.8 vital passes and also finishing 0.4 crosses per video game.
The 26-year-old likewise pleased in metrics much more common of his setting, making approximately one take on, 0.3 interceptions, 0.5 clearances and also winning 3.8 battles– at a success price of 52%– per suit.
It has actually been a comparable tale over the right-back’s 17 organization trips up until now this period, with the ₤ 54k-per-week flanker having actually currently discovered the web when, supplied 2 helps and also produced 8 large possibilities, along with taking approximately 1.1 shots, making one vital pass and also finishing 0.4 crosses per trip.
With those numbers in mind, it’s rarely a shock to see him referred to as a “deadly” ability by reporter Marco Messina with Micah Richards having actually likewise identified the full-back “< a href="https://www.teamtalk.com/tottenham-hotspur/denzel-dumfries-praised-expert-breathless-world-cup-performance-heightening-spurs-interest">breathless“.
Crucially, the Dutchman has actually likewise been strong at the back this term, making approximately 0.6 takes on, 0.5 interceptions, 0.9 clearances and also winning 3.4 battles– at a success price of 54%– per component.
And, while it is obvious that the evergreen Kieran Trippier is Eddie Howe’s present front runner at right-back, with the England worldwide transforming 33 years old later on this year, sourcing a follower for the protector would certainly show up a smart step earlier instead of later on.
As such, taking into consideration simply exactly how attack-minded Dumfries obviously is, it would certainly quite look like if the Dutchman can make something of a dangerous follower to Trippier on the right of the Magpies’ backline– leading us to think that Ashworth securing a ₤ 35m bargain for the 26-year-old would certainly stand for something of a stroke of genius for Newcastle this month.
