Denzel Dumfries has delivered a clear message to the Premier League clubs tracking his situation, he is happy at Inter Milan and his only focus is winning trophies, not contemplating a move away.
The Dutch wing-back sat down for an exclusive interview with Sky Sport, opening with a candid account of the injury nightmare that kept him sidelined for three months earlier this season.
Despite the scale of the setback, his outlook is resolutely positive.
“I have never had a physical problem like this in my career, it was difficult because I needed surgery,” he said, with quotes via FCInterNews.
“But now I am very positive looking at the end of the season.”
