Mourinho is demanding a specific player from Inter Milan before his arrival!

After Dani Carvajal’s departure following a legendary career with Real Madrid, it became clear that Real Madrid would not wait long to replace a distinguished player who had given so much to Real Madrid throughout his career, and Mourinho certainly would not accept any player to replace Carvajal.

José Mourinho has identified Denzel Dumfries as his top right‑back target, with the Real Madrid manager pushing to bring the Inter Milan defender to the Bernabéu, according to Nicolò Schira.

The Spanish giants have already made their first move, opening official talks with the representatives of the 30‑year‑old Dutch international. Mourinho is said to value Dumfries’ athleticism, work rate, and attacking contribution, viewing him as an ideal fit for his tactical system.

Financially, the deal is particularly attractive for Madrid. Dumfries’ current contract with Inter includes a fixed release clause of €25 million, a manageable fee for a player with his experience and profile.

This season, the full‑back has made 28 appearances for the Nerazzurri, scoring five goals and providing two assists. Transfermarkt values him at €25 million — a figure that aligns closely with the clause. If Madrid move quickly, they could secure a Mourinho target without entering a protracted negotiation. The ball is now in the player’s camp, but the structure of the deal seems clear.
