Manchester United and Real Madrid are reportedly interested in signing 27-year-old Italian international Federico Dimarco from Serie A champions Inter Milan.
According to a report by Italian outlet Inter Live, Federico Dimarco is the subject of interest from Manchester United. The Red Devils have submitted an enquiry for the Inter Milan wing-back. Meanwhile, the 27-year-old is also a target for Real Madrid, with Los Blancos looking to secure his services in a deal worth €70 million next year.
Federico Dimarco and his Inter Milan journey
Federico Dimarco has been one of the best players in Serie A in the last few seasons. A native of Milan, he spent his formative years in his hometown and graduated from the youth division at Inter Milan. However, he had to bide his time before establishing himself as a regular for the first team.
Dimarco embarked on four loan spells away from Inter Milan while spending one season with FC Sion before making his mark for Inter Milan. The 27-year-old is now a mainstay in the defensive unit at the Serie A club, and he played his part as the Nerazzurri won the Scudetto in the 2024/25 season.
The Italian international has been excellent thus far this season, amassing three goals and five assists in 18 appearances across all competitions. Meanwhile, the Inter Milan wing-back’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, including Manchester United and Real Madrid.
A man in demand
Manchester United’s interest in Federico Dimarco is understandable. The Red Devils are scouring the market for a new left wing-back amid the never-ending fitness issues of Luke Shaw. In addition, Tyrell Malacia has been slow off the blocks since returning from his layoff. So, Dimarco has emerged as a viable target for Manchester United, with the Premier League club submitting an enquiry for him.
As for Real Madrid, the reigning La Liga champions are keen on signing a new left-back amid the faltering performances of Ferland Mendy. With Fran Garcia not being ready to become the first-choice left-back, Dimarco is an option worth considering. The report has claimed that Real Madrid will submit a bid worth €70 million to sign the Inter Milan wing-back.
It is unclear if Inter Milan will accept a bid worth €70 million to part ways with the 27-year-old Italian international. It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid can beat Manchester United to his signature with the upcoming offer.
