On May 13, Beijing time, Italy's "Milan Sports Newspaper" broke the news that Aston Villa, a Premier League powerhouse with a high probability of qualifying for the Champions League next season, has included Inter Milan winger Dumfries in the list of reinforcements. The Nerazzurri have offered him €30 million, and from this price alone, Dumfries is still a good value for money.

This season, Dumfries has scored three goals and provided five assists in 34 games in all competitions for Inter, including three goals and four assists in 29 Serie A games, averaging 0.72 tackles, 0.38 interceptions and 0.83 clearances per game, making 574 passes and 26 key passes, with a pass completion rate of 80%. Inter were able to win this season's Serie A ahead of schedule, but Dumfries still made his contribution.

However, it is precisely because he feels that he is indispensable in the Inter team, Dumfries has asked for an annual salary of 5.5 million euros in the renewal negotiations, which is obviously unacceptable to Inter, and the Nerazzurri have offered him a contract extension of less than 4 million euros, and the gap between the two sides is still a bit big.

In this case, Inter also began to prepare with both hands. The signing of Canadian winger Buchanan in the winter window is actually preparing for Dumfries' departure. After all, Inter have a profound lesson in this regard. At the beginning, they were too optimistic about the renewal of Slovakian central defender Skriniar, and as a result, they could only watch his contract expire and move to Paris on a free transfer. Originally, Inter could have received a transfer fee of at least 50 million euros from Grand Paris. So, with Dumfries' contract expiring in the summer of 2025, Inter have already made up their minds. If the Dutchman refuses to renew his contract, he will be sold this summer.

Of course, Dumfries's personal ability makes him not lack a home. The Red Devils Manchester United had been eyeing him before. However, manager Ten Hag is now busy with himself, and the rumours of Manchester United and Dumfries have come to an abrupt end. However, the emergence of Aston Villa turned things around.

Villa have had a very good run this season under Spanish coach Unai Emery and are now fourth in the Premier League, four points ahead of Tottenham Hotspur behind them. With two Premier League games remaining, they are likely to reach the Champions League again after a 42-year absence. In this case, the signing of Dumfries, an experienced and young Dutch international winger, will certainly help Villa to have a better record in next season's Champions League.

However, Dumfries' requirement for an annual salary is expected to be a big obstacle for him to land in the Premier League. You must know that Serie A is an after-tax salary, and if it is 5.5 million, it will be about 11 million euros before tax in the Premier League, which is equivalent to about 9.45 million pounds, and the weekly salary has reached 180,000 pounds. However, as a wingback, I am afraid that the club that is willing to give this salary is estimated to be Manchester United Chelsea, and Villa is estimated to be no play. Therefore, Dumfries still has to think about it, and it is not good to make the chicken and the egg in a dilemma.
