Top defensive target ‘happy’ about links to Real Madrid – Fabrizio Romano | OneFootball

Dean Huijsen has been making waves in the football world lately, especially after his recent debut for the Spain national team, thrusting him into the spotlight.

The 19-year-old centre-back’s breakthrough season at Bournemouth in the Premier League has only fueled the buzz, with his performances drawing attention from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.

Huijsen ‘happy’ about Real Madrid links

Now, Real Madrid fans have reason to smile as transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reveals that the young defender is genuinely excited about being linked with the Spanish giants.

In one of his latest transfer updates, Romano has indeed claimed that Huijsen is ‘really, really happy’ about recent speculation linking him with a move to Santiago Bernabeu.

Real Madrid have a huge advantage

Huijsen’s rise has sparked interest from the likes of Chelsea and Barcelona, but Real Madrid seem to hold a distinct advantage.

A lifelong Madridista, Huijsen has reportedly told his inner circle that if he were to leave Bournemouth, the Santiago Bernabeu would be his dream destination.

The teenager’s blend of physicality, ball-playing ability, and tactical nous makes him a perfect fit for Carlo Ancelotti’s squad, which is on the lookout for fresh defensive talent.

While no transfer is set in stone, the combination of Huijsen’s enthusiasm and Raul Asencio’s discipline could make for a stellar defensive combination, should Real Madrid decide to go ahead with their pursuit of the Bournemouth superstar.
