Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen has called it “a major honour” to be linked with a sensational move to Spanish giants Real Madrid.

More Details

After joining from Juventus for £15 million in the summer, Huijsen is having a fantastic season at the Vitality Stadium, helping the Cherries in their quest for European football.



Despite Bournemouth’s lack of experience playing on the continent, Huijsen has been crucial to their rise up the Premier League standings this season because of their solid defensive connection with Illia Zabarnyi.

Despite his stature, Huijsen has been commended for his ability to play central defence and has made the most clearances (126) and headed clearances (62) of any adolescent in Europe’s top five divisions this season.

Huijsen received his first Spain call-up this week, taking Inigo Martinez’s place in La Roja’s squad to play the Netherlands, his birthplace, demonstrating that his form has not gone ignored.

Huijsen, who joined the senior squad this week, has been eager to discuss the possibility of eventually joining Real Madrid in an interview with Relevo.
