Real Madrid Confidencial Madrid Identifies New Sergio, and It's not Asencio; Calafat Urges to Transfer Him Now
Dean Huijsen, central defender for Bournemouth, is designated as the successor to Sergio Ramos; his performance is appreciated by Madrid
Real Madrid already has its sights set on its next great defender. It is Dean Huijsen, a young 19-year-old central defender who plays for Bournemouth in the Premier League.
The Spanish-Dutch player is considered one of the players with the most potential to follow in Sergio Ramos's footsteps.
Huijsen has excelled under the direction of Andoni Iraola, being an undisputed first team player in the last 10 games. His performance has sparked the interest of Juni Calafat, who recommends his transfer to strengthen the defense. Additionally, the central defender could become the ideal replacement for Eder Militão, who is currently out due to injury.
A special bond with Málaga
Although born in Amsterdam, Huijsen grew up in Málaga, where he took his first steps in soccer with the boquerón club. At 16, he left for Juventus, but he never stopped missing the Andalusian city.
Real Madrid plans to leverage this emotional bond to entice the center-back. His signing would allow him to be closer to his family and friends. This detail, along with the prestige of the white club, could be decisive in convincing him.
Before opting for Spanish nationality in 2024, Huijsen represented the Netherlands in lower categories. He was the runner-up in the Under-17 European Championship in Israel, showing his quality in international tournaments.
Now, as a player for La Roja, his arrival at Madrid would enhance his growth and consolidation as one of Europe's best young defenders.
A key decision for the future
Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez are confident in closing this deal soon. However, Bournemouth will not let him go easily, as he is a key piece in their defensive scheme.
Real Madrid hopes that Huijsen chooses Santiago Bernabéu as his next home. If the deal doesn't materialize, the club will continue to seek quality reinforcements for the defense.
Dean Huijsen has the opportunity to fulfill his dream and become the new defensive reference for Real Madrid. Now, the decision is in his hands.
