Denzel Dumfries agent makes bizarre transfer statement amid Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham links

Denzel Dumfries' agent - Rafaela Pimenta - has dropped a huge hint over the future of the Netherlands international by claiming that they don't want his price to increase too much to deter interest. It comes amid an impressive series of displays from the wing-back in his first few games of the World Cup so far.

The 26-year-old has already shown his prowess in both boxes, adding two assists and a goal to his nation's impressive defensive record so far and leading them to the quarter-finals. The performances will have likely caught the eye of potential suitors, with Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham all interested in a switch, as per recent reports.

The move for the Blues comes amid a shortage of options at wing-back, especially in the absence of academy graduate and England star Reece James. The youngster has often shown how important he is as an attacking outlet on the right and someone of Dumfries' profile may be an ideal second option.
