July 3 According to the Daily Sports Daily, Barcelona is interested in Dumfries and Frick favors this player very much.

Dumfries impressed Frick, his coaching team and Barcelona's sports head about two months ago when Inter Milan eliminated Barcelona with a total score of 7-6 in the Champions League semi-finals. At that time, the Daily Sports reported a news report: Frick told the club that he wanted a strong and extremely fast full-back.

However, the team's priorities eventually changed. First, they seized the opportunity to sign young goalkeeper Garcia and spent only 25 million euros to terminate the contract. Next, Nico Williams' attitude changed after refusing to transfer last summer, opening the door to Barcelona again. Although not finalized, the Athletic Bilbao winger's termination fee is €62 million (including inflation adjustments), which is expected to be completed soon.

As for Dumfries' situation, although other priority targets exist, the signings at Barcelona's right-back position were not completely closed. On Wednesday, transfer expert Romano mentioned that the Inter Milan player's termination clause is 25 million euros and is valid until mid-July. He also added that Barcelona have shown interest in the 29-year-old Dutch international over the past few months, but so far the club has not yet made a formal offer or made official contact.

Once Nico Williams' transfer dust settles, Barcelona may focus more clearly on the right-back position. Currently, Frick has Conde and Eric Garcia on the right, while Barde and Gerald Martinez on the left. In addition, Jofrey Tolentz will also participate in pre-season training to win first-team opportunities.

There is no doubt that Dumfries is a player who can be competent for right back and further ahead, and is very consistent with Flick's taste. Given his 25 million euro termination amount, although his higher salary in Inter and the economic investment the club has made, this may still be a good opportunity to improve the lineup.
