The Blues have been interested in the 26-year-old right-back since last summer. Dumfries has been influential for the Nerazurris ever since his transfer from PSV last season.

Since James’s injury against AC Milan, Graham Potter has found it hard to cover the right back position. An aging Cesar Azpilicueta is Graham Potter’s best bet in the right back with Reece James out of the squad. The addition of Dumfries to the squad will enhance the aerial prowess to the Blues’ defense as well as Aerial threat in the attack. The defender has been influential in Inter’s shock round of 16 qualification in the UEFA Champions League too.
