In a “strategic move for the future,” Real Madrid is reportedly “convinced” that Bournemouth center-back Dean Huijsen is the right player for them.
Due to Huijsen’s stellar Premier League season, he has been linked to several major teams, including Madrid, Manchester United, Liverpool, and Newcastle United. According to sources, Chelsea poses the biggest danger to Madrid’s desire, although other teams like Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain are also reportedly interested.
According to SPORT, however, the Spanish team seems to have started things off right, as they have already made contact with the player’s camp to determine whether he is interested in joining the team. The reaction has been positive, and Madrid is reportedly eager to recruit 19-year-old Huijsen.
Leny Yoro joined Manchester United last summer after the European champions decided not to pay a high price for him. With a £50 million (€60 million) release clause in his Bournemouth contract, Huijsen is expected to cost roughly the same, but he is said to be a better fit for Madrid’s needs.
Real Madrid Face Competition for Dean Huijsen Signing
Fabrizio Romano, a well-known football journalist, recently talked about the Bournemouth contract problem. As to Romano, Huijsen’s youth squad, Juventus, has preserved a 20% sell-on clause in case he decides to leave the English team.
The release clause in this deal, which is effective this summer, is worth up to 50 million pounds. Bournemouth may be contacted by any team, which can then pay the release clause and sign the player. It is uncommon, therefore, to pay such a substantial amount in one go. Another two to three million dollars is added to the expenditures because clubs usually attempt to reach deals to postpone these payments over time.
The upcoming season will see Real Madrid either bolster their center-back position or depend on David Alaba, Eder Militao, Antonio Rudiger, and Raul Asencio. Although it is not very large, the release clause is also not negligible.
It is necessary to decide and think about whether the club is prepared to invest so much money in a 20-year-old. Many teams, including Madrid, are getting ready to compete while a 50 million pound clause is still in effect.
