In England They Announce It: Madrid Already Knows the Reply to the Offer for Huijsen

Real Madrid continues to consider making a strong move for Dean Huijsen

Real Madrid is focused on the present. Although it doesn't stop looking to the future, aware that every summer they must strengthen the team of the Italian Carlo Ancelotti.

"We'll see, we've got a bunch of games in January and we're focused on that. Talking about the market isn't easy at this moment. It's not the time to talk about this topic here, I'm delighted with the team I have. We've had difficulties, but we've been able to overcome them," expressed the merengue coach in a press conference.

These words from the Italian coach suggest there won't be transfers in January, beyond the serious injuries of Dani Carvajal and Eder Militão.

The reality is that David Alaba will return with the team after the Spanish Super Cup, which gives the coaching staff some peace to face the second part of the season.

Dean Huijsen in the spotlight

What is clear is that Madrid will indeed strengthen in the summer, as Vallejo's contract ends and the need to bolster the defense is paramount.

This makes Juni Calafat keep looking at possibilities, although the figure of Dean Huijsen is gaining a lot of strength, as he is a talent for the present and the future.

The white club has been considering the idea of going strongly for the Bournemouth center-back, but those led by Andoni Iraola are not willing.

The newspaper The Sun has revealed that the English entity "won't accept any offer for Huijsen in January, despite the interest caused by Real Madrid".

This would further clear the path of the winter market for the merengues, as they don't plan to make any transfers that compromise the future.

The idea is to go to the transfer window in the summer and thus strengthen Carlo Ancelotti's defense, which must make a significant leap in quality in 2025-2026.
