Liverpool eye Dumfries with €25m clause

Liverpool's interest in Inter defender Dumfries has gained momentum, with the club described as having "always strong" interest in the player. The €25m release clause, active only in July, presents an affordable opportunity for the Reds to secure a versatile full-back who fits their preference for athletic and tactically flexible players.

Despite a previous January enquiry that led nowhere, Liverpool's transfer policy typically involves tracking targets over seasons. The club may move early to secure Dumfries before rivals, while Inter faces the delicate task of balancing squad stability with financial considerations.
