Summary

Real Madrid is moving in the transfer market, with a preliminary agreement for Ibrahima Konate and plans to sign Denzel Dumfries from Inter Milan. Incoming manager Jose Mourinho has endorsed Dumfries, acknowledging his experience and adaptability, particularly in the demanding tactical setups of Serie A. Dumfries has a release clause set at €25 million, a fee considered reasonable for his skill level.
