To address this vulnerability and replace Carvajal’s immense presence, Real Madrid have targeted Dumfries. The Netherlands international, who will represent his country at the upcoming World Cup, presents a fascinating option. Despite his Inter contract running until 2028, the Italian club are reportedly willing to negotiate a low-cost departure. The 30-year-old enjoyed a productive campaign, contributing five goals and two assists in 28 appearances. Overall, Dumfries has amassed an impressive 207 matches for the Serie A champions, scoring 27 times and providing 28 assists. The Madrid hierarchy view his immense physical profile and vast experience as the perfect antidote to their current defensive fragility, believing he can immediately challenge Alexander-Arnold.
