Real Madrid Trigger €20m Release Clause to Sign Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan

Real Madrid have secured the signing of Dutch international Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan after triggering his €20 million release clause, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.

The 30-year-old right-back has agreed personal terms with Los Blancos and is set to become the club’s latest addition as they look to strengthen their squad depth ahead of the new season. Known for his powerful runs, attacking overlaps, and physical presence, Dumfries has been a standout performer for Inter since joining from PSV Eindhoven in 2021.

Dumfries brings significant European experience, including strong performances in the Champions League. His ability to contribute both defensively and offensively makes him a versatile option for manager Xabi Alonso or whoever leads the team next campaign. At €20m, the deal represents strong value for a proven player entering his prime years.

The move marks another strategic acquisition for Real Madrid, who continue to refresh their backline while maintaining fiscal prudence. Inter, meanwhile, will now look to reinvest the funds and identify a replacement for the Dutchman.

Dumfries is expected to undergo a medical in the coming days before putting pen to paper on his contract at the Santiago Bernabéu. The transfer is anticipated to be officially announced by Real Madrid shortly.
