Real Madrid and Manchester United contact Inter Milan for Federico Dimarco
Manchester United, as well as Real Madrid, have gotten in touch with Inter Milan to enquire about Federico Dimarco, according to the Independent.
As things stand, the Nerazzurri are under pressure to sell some of their stars in the ongoing transfer window. To that end, the Italy international is one of the Serie A giants’ most marketable assets.
The full-back has caught a lot of teams’ attention with his displays last season. However, the Red Devils and Los Blancos are seen as the frontrunners to acquire his services at the moment.
Erik ten Hag is keen on adding the 25-year-old to his ranks in the coming months. The Dutch manager admires the defender’s versatility. He could also be available for a relatively low price.
Dimarco made his way through the youth ranks at Inter. However, after a number of seasons away from the Nerazzurri, the left-back finally got an opportunity to showcase his talent at the Serie A giants in the 2021/22 campaign.
Since then, the Italian has been a key player for Simone Inzaghi’s team. The 25-year-old impressed many this season, scoring six goals and providing 10 assists in 50 appearances in all competitions for the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza side.
At Madrid, the left-hand side of the defence has been covered by Eduardo Camavinga in the last few months. The France international is a natural midfielder. Ferland Mendy has fallen down the pecking order at Los Blancos. Carlo Ancelotti can also deploy David Alaba in that position.
On the other hand, Ten Hag relied heavily on Luke Shaw last season. The England international was impressive in the previous campaign and had the trust of the Dutch manager.
We also signed Tyrell Malacia last summer from Feyenoord. The 23-year-old mostly played a bit-part role in his first year in Manchester.

Therefore, for now, the Red Devils have enough quality at left-back. Thus, it remains to be seen how the gaffer will plan to use Dimarco if the Old Trafford side end up acquiring his services.
