position has been affected the most after Conor Bradley suffered a season-ending injury in January, while Jeremie Frimpong has been injured for 117 days since joining Liverpool, missing 25 games in the process.<\/p>\n<p>This has led to Dominik Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones and even Wataru Endo featuring in the position whenever the natural options were injured.<\/p>\n<p>With the summer approaching, the Reds are now exploring natural fullbacks who would be reliable, and the club have now turned their attention to Dumfries.<\/p>\n<p>According to<em> Schira<\/em>, Liverpool are closely monitoring Dumfries\u2019 situation at Inter ahead of a potential <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/transfer-rumours\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Transfer rumours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">transfer<\/a> to Anfield in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian journalist adds that the Dutchman has a meagre \u00a321m release clause in his contract, and the Merseyside club are now evaluating whether to make a summer swoop for the versatile fullback.<\/p>\n<h2>Liverpool evaluating Dumfries swoop<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/NicoSchira\/status\/2017291097072918778?s=20\" target=\"_blank\">In a January report<\/a>, <em>Schira<\/em> claimed that Liverpool had opened talks with Dumfries\u2019 representatives about his transfer, so it\u2019ll be interesting to see how the deal plays out as the summer window approaches.<\/p>\n<p>Since completing his move from PSV Eindhoven in 2021, Denzel Dumfries has established himself as a key figure at Inter, amassing 203 appearances across all competitions while providing 54 goal contributions.<\/p>\n<p>Operating predominantly as a wing-back, he has developed a reputation as one of the most dangerous attacking fullbacks across Europe\u2019s top five leagues in recent seasons, and he could provide attacking qualities from the fullback position reminiscent of <a href=\"https:\/\/football-talk.co.uk\/tag\/trent-alexander-arnold\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"43\" title=\"trent alexander-arnold\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trent Alexander-Arnold<\/a>\u2019s time at the club.<\/p>\n<p>His physicality would also prove invaluable for the Reds, and he could be a key asset in stopping opposition attacks from the right, which have often been targeted this season.<\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands international mirrors several traits of Frimpong, and with both competing for the same position at the international level, it is unsurprising that Liverpool are now evaluating him as a potential option to provide competition for his incessantly injured compatriot.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<!--mvp-post-tags--><br
