Inter star Denzel Dumfries responds to Chelsea and Manchester United interest

Inter Milan defender Denzel Dumfries is "flattered" by interest from Chelsea and Manchester United.

The wing-back was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League during the summer transfer window after impressing during his first season in Italy, in which he scored five goals and added four assists.

Both Chelsea and United were on the hunt for defenders during the off-season, and have been linked with reigniting their interest in the January transfer window.

Dumfries, though, is not looking to leave Inter this season as the Italian giants look to win the league after seeing city rivals AC Milan claim then Scudetto last term.

"The interest flatters me, of course,” he told De Telegraaf.

“But my focus is only on Inter. We want to win the Scudetto because we lost it last season."

Dumfries has started this season in impressive form, notching two goals and an assist so far.
