MANCHESTER UNITED are set to face a transfer battle with their Premier League rivals for Inter Milan star Denzel Dumfries, according to reports.

Chelsea and Newcastle are ready to rival the Red Devils for the right-back.

Dumfries' representatives have supposedly flown to England to hold talks with those interested, claim Gazzetta dello Sport.

Inter have set a price tag of £44million, although reports suggest a £35million bid could be enough.

The Serie A side could have to sell to help balance the books and the player's deal expires in the summer of 2025.

Dumfries has featured 23 times for Inter this season, scoring two goals and assisting three.

The 26-year-old also impressed at the World Cup with the Netherlands.

He played every minute for his country and even got a goal and two assists in Qatar before they were knocked out in the quarter-finals to winners Argentina on penalties.

Man Utd would like to sign a full-back to compete with Diogo Dalot in the long-term.

Erik ten Hag is reportedly willing to let Aaron Wan-Bissaka leave Old Trafford but any move for Dumfries could have to wait for the summer due to financial reasons.
