Inter Milan fullback Dumfries confirmed Everton offer

Denzel Dumfries admits he turned down Everton to join Inter Milan last summer.

Everton explored the possibility of signing the right-back, but he opted to join Inter Milan from PSV Eindhoven.

He told Voetbal International: “It took some time to close the deal, but when it happened, I had goosebumps.

“I was talking to [my agent Mino] Raiola every day, I strongly wanted to join Inter. I had an offer from Everton, but I didn't think twice about coming here.

“They have a great tradition in Italy and Europe and they are the champions of Italy. The city of Milan also had an impact on my choice.

“[In November] I played the first derby of Milan in my career and it was incredible. The stadium was full.

"These are things you dream about when you are a footballer."
