FC Bayern won the transfer tug-of-war over Noussair Mazraoui and were able to sign the Moroccan on a free transfer. However, just six months after his debut with Munich, there are rumors of a departure. The Gazzetta dello Sport speaks of an interest from Inter Milan.

The Nerazzuri have apparently not given up on signing Noussair Mazraoui after last summer’s failure. The reason for the Serie A club’s interest is the fact that Denzel Dumfries is being courted by several Premier League clubs (including Chelsea FC and Manchester United). Should the Dutchman leave the club, Mazraoui would be Inter’s preferred candidate, according to the Italian newspaper.

However, all of this is not really realistic. Firstly, Inter would not let Dumfries go below 60 million euros in winter and secondly, Mazraoui will not be available anyway. Bayern’s summer signing has settled in well in Munich and already scratched Benjamin Pavard’s regular place in the first half of the season. With the latest developments, Mazraoui is expected to lead already and remain the number one right-back in the long term. Accordingly, there is no reason for either the player or the club to terminate the employment relationship. His contract also runs until 2026. Although Bayern have also been interested in Dumfries in the past, an exchange deal does not seem realistic either. Munich will continue with Mazraoui and will not offer it for exchange or sale.
