Denzel Dumfries has since turned a corner liverpool Came forward for them in January. The Reds may have another opportunity to acquire a wing-back.
In the winter window, sports witness Viewpoints covered widely. This was also confirmed by Nerazzurri CEO Beppe Marotta, as the Dutchman was injured at the time.
It hasn't taken long for Dumfries to make its mark. He scored a vital two goals away to Como a few days earlier, helping Inter move closer to the Serie A title. Earlier, he had also played an important role in the team in place of Luis Henrique.
Now, tuttomerkatoweb Have looked into its future, it has become clear that things are far from certain.
Release clause will apply
The outlet says the Netherlands international is 'stronger than ever' after ankle problem. Even though that injury troubled him for three months, it had no impact on his performance.
They call him a potential star of the World Cup and this could also decide his future.
This is because the 29-year-old has a release clause of €25m. This will come into effect in the summer and will only be relevant for foreign clubs.
The report adds to previous interest from Liverpool, with them also hopeful of a summer deal. Inter will have no control over the deal due to the clause.

Our opinion: Dumfries promoted in the best light
Seems like an attempt is being made to talk about Dumfries' release clause. This will put pressure on Inter, who will not want to sell him at such a cheap price.
This could also be a way to force a renewal and Liverpool's previous interest is probably being used to this end.
The Reds currently have two full-back options in the team. Furthermore, Dumfries has always been a wing-back who consistently operates in the final third. This makes it easy to question Liverpool's interest, as the Reds have other issues to address within the squad.
