Overview
- Real Madrid have informed Inter Milan they will activate Dumfries’ €20 million release clause to sign the Dutch right-back.
- Dumfries completed medical tests in the Netherlands on Wednesday while he was suspended from a Netherlands friendly with permission from coach Ronald Koeman.
- Real plan to withhold an official announcement until their presidential election is resolved and the clause formally activates at the start of July.
- The move is intended to fill Real’s right-back vacancy after Dani Carvajal’s departure and will place Dumfries in competition with other full‑backs in the squad.
- Dumfries leaves Inter after five successful seasons that included domestic trophies and 207 appearances and his sale limits Inter’s ability to negotiate a higher fee.
