Norton-Cuffy and Bellanova among possible Inter replacements for Dumfries

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Genoa’s Brooke Norton-Cuffy and Atalanta’s Raoul Bellanova are among Inter’s targets to replace the injured Denzel Dumfries in January.

Inter defender Dumfries will only return to action in March 2026 after undergoing ankle surgery over the last few days.

Inter’s possible replacements for Dumfries

The Nerazzurri have already set their sights on several possible replacements and according to Gazzetta Norton-Cuffy, Bellanova, Moris Valinčić (Rijeka) and Idrissa Touré (Pisa) are on the Nerazzurri’s agenda.

Bellanova is a former Inter defender who spent the 2022-23 season at San Siro. He is practically a regular starter at Atalanta, but La Dea have many options on the wings and will welcome back Marco Palestra from Cagliari next season, so Bellanova’s departure can’t be ruled out.

Norton-Cuffy is another player the Nerazzurri have been following for a while, but according to Gazzetta, the Serie A giants are not entirely convinced by the ex-Arsenal defender’s defensive skills.

Inter are currently the Serie A table leaders, and their next league match is away at Atalanta on December 28.
