Hi Michael,

I don't think it is a hardware issue because when I boot to Windows and
shutdown from there, the system shutdowns properly.
The problem occurs only on Debian.

I think Michael might be right. Maybe the problem is caused by a ACPI-function or the UEFI-software in the BIOS of your laptop.

So you have to update the firmware of the BIOS of your laptop. Does a "Dell 7535"-laptop really exists?

and try to get the right update to flash your BIOS.
