Barcelona Keen To Sign Inter Milan Star – But Face FFP Hurdle | OneFootball

Barcelona are keen to sign Inter Milan wingback Denzel Dumfries this summer, but face a major hurdle in the form of FFP.

This according to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, via FCInterNews.

The future of Denzel Dumfries has come up for some speculation in recent days.

Reportedly, the 29-year-old was not a fan of the harsh words from Inter captain Lautaro Martinez after Monday’s Club World Cup exit against Fluminense.

Therefore, Martinez may have inadvertently pushed his teammate out the exit door. He did, after all, implore “whoever wants to leave, leave.”

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are one of the main clubs interested in signing Dumfries.

Furthermore, the Dutchman has a release clause worth €25 million. That is active until the 15th of June.

Therefore, a deal for Dumfries would certainly not be tricky to negotiate, if it’s before that deadline. It would simply require offering €25 million.

However, Mundo Deportivo report, the risk of falling afoul of Financial Fair Play rules would mean that it would not be quite so straightforward for Barcelona.

The Blaugranas believe that Dumfries would be the right kind of fullback for them. However, they would need to find a way to sort their finances out to comply with FFP before moving for him.
