Manchester United ‘would really like to sign’ Denzel Dumfries for Erik ten Hag and the Dutch manager’s arrival at Old Trafford could hold the important thing to a transfer, in line with reports. The Red Devils are believed to be out there for a recent right-back with £50million man Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s future currently unclear.
United are expected to entertain offers for his or her full-back, who’s attracting interest from Crystal Palace and Roma.
Diogo Dalot is anticipated to remain however the position has been identified as an area that’s in need of improvement.
In keeping with The Each day Mail, United have now turned attention to Dumfries, a player Ten Hag knows well resulting from his Eredivisie pedigree.
The 26-year-old spent three seasons with PSV Eindhoven before moving onto Inter Milan last summer, where he has been an easy hit.

Dumfries managed five goals and 4 assists in 33 Serie A outings last season in his debut campaign in Italy.
Chelsea have also been credited with interest in recent days however it’s unclear whether the Blues are firmly interested.
Legendary Inter striker Christian Vieri expects Dumfries to be sold alongside Milan Skriniar.
“From what I understand, Inter will sell Skriniar and Dumfries,” the retired centre-forward recently predicted on Italian TV.
There may be other suitors in the combo for Dumfries though with Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich amongst those previously linked – although the Bavarians have now pushed ahead to sign Noussair Mazraoui from Ajax.
United are yet to maneuver out there besides making a gap offer for Dumfries’ international team-mate Frenkie de Jong.
The Red Devils are fastidiously considering which targets they pursue as Ten Hag’s plans at Old Trafford begin to take shape.
Right-back is just not believed to be a priority but an area where there’s an appreciation that more quality is required.
