The Only Club That Can Compete with Real Madrid for Huijsen Isn't Liverpool

The Rivalry Brewing Between Real Madrid and a Team Looking to Compete for Dean Huijsen's Signing

One of the great revelations of this season has been Dean Huijsen's outstanding level. Leaving Juventus to join Bournemouth, Huijsen has managed to exceed all expectations. With Real Madrid eyeing him for the next market, a Premier League rival has emerged, surprisingly not being Liverpool.

Chelsea is the team that has shown strong interest in acquiring Huijsen's services. Given his great level in the Premier League, Huijsen wouldn't have problems adapting to the dynamics of the London club. However, Real Madrid isn't interested in losing the transfer of a player they consider essential for the future.

Faced with the need to renew the defense for the next season, Real Madrid has seen Huijsen as the perfect center-back for this. Although there are still a few months left before the start of the next market, Real Madrid already has a rival for the operation for Huijsen.

The Competition for Huijsen

At just 19 years old, Dean Huijsen has stood out significantly at Bournemouth. Playing 2,080 minutes, these have been enough to earn him an important place in the club and be drafted for the Spanish national team. Despite having a contract until 2030, his release clause has brought him closer to an exit at the end of the current campaign.

Real Madrid remained his only destination for the next season, being the club most interested in his signing. Looking for a young center-back with experience in Europe, Huijsen perfectly fits the profile that Real Madrid has been seeking.

However, Chelsea's presence could be a significant problem due to the capital they have to spend on signings. Known in recent years for making million-dollar transfers, Real Madrid is at risk of losing the transfer of Huijsen.

Real Madrid's Rival

Despite the offers Chelsea may be planning to present, Real Madrid remains the favorite to sign Huijsen. For a center-back as young as he is, being part of an ambitious project as a key player is much more tempting.
