Didac Aguirre Florentino and Xabi Alonso give the OK, assign a task to Juni Calafat
The signing that Juni Calafat must carry out after receiving approval from Florentino Pérez and Xabi Alonso
One of the most important members of Real Madrid in recent years is Juni Calafat. With a natural gift for spotting the best talents in the world, Florentino and Xabi have entrusted him with a goal. According to what we know at Defensa Central, Calafat was sent to the Netherlands to assess the performance of AZ Alkmaar's player: Kees Smit.
Since last season, the young midfielder has dazzled all of Europe with his unmatched talent. Having a great campaign with AZ Alkmaar, Kees established himself as a great prospect during the Under-19 European Championship. Throughout the entire tournament, the Dutchman was the best player on his national team and the highest-rated player in the whole competition.
Additionally, Kees Smit finished the tournament as the top scorer, showing his great goal-scoring instinct despite his role in midfield. Amid uncertainty regarding Dani Ceballos's future, Real Madrid considers Kees the ideal replacement. Closely following his progress for some time, the team wants to be sure about carrying out his transfer.
Juni Calafat's new goal
Players like Vinícius, Rodrygo, Bellingham, or Endrick are part of Real Madrid thanks to Juni Calafat. Along with his talent for spotting the best prospects, Calafat is recognized as a great negotiator. Always finding a way to secure signings that were thought to be impossible, it's no surprise that Real Madrid fully trusts him.
Kees Smit, just 19 years old, is the young sensation of European soccer. Trained in AZ Alkmaar's youth academy, this is his second season with the Dutch first team. Just last season, Kees managed to play a total of 2,592 min. (2,592 minutes), scoring 10 goals and providing 7 assists.
In addition to his goal-scoring instinct, Kees stands out for his vision, ability to break lines, and elegant ball touch. With a value of just 5 million euros according to Transfermarkt, his signing wouldn't be a problem for Real Madrid. However, following its own policy, the team wants to be completely sure about his signing.
Real Madrid's future star
Shining both with his club and his national team, Kees Smit is a player destined to be one of the best. Despite his age, one of his most outstanding qualities is his extreme maturity. With his feet on the ground, Kees is aware that, to reach Real Madrid, he must first prove that he has what it takes to play for Real Madrid.
