According to Sport Media Set, Denzel Dumfries will join Everton after Inter Milan turned their attention to Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin.
What’s the story?
Well, after a stunning EURO 2020 campaign with the Netherlands, Dumfries is a man in demand.
Inter Milan wanted him to replace Achraf Hakimi, who joined Paris Saint-Germain after one season at the San Siro.
However, according to Sport Media Set, Goodison Park will be the Dutchman’s destination.
Things are said to be so far advanced between PSV Eindhoven and Everton that Inter Milan have now switched their focus to signing Bellerin.
Huge coup for Rafa Benitez
What a first signing for Rafa Benitez this would be!
Dumfries enjoyed a spectacular 2020/21 campaign, scoring four goals while providing nine assists from right-back.
However, it was at EURO 2020 where he really put his name up in lights.
Dumfries scored two goals for the Netherlands in four games, including a late winner in a 3-2 win over Ukraine.
If that was a sign of things to come on Merseyside, the Everton supporters should be feeling very excited.
In our view, the 25-year-old is the ideal long-term replacement for Seamus Coleman.
Both are very talented attackers, but crucially, they’re also strong defenders.
Everton have pulled off a wonderful deal here – fair play to Marcel Brands.
