Dean Huijsen, a 20-year-old player who rose to fame for his great performances at Bournemouth and was called up to the Spanish national team, will be Real Madrid's new player starting next season, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Huijsen, who was also wanted by other Premier League teams like Chelsea, Arsenal, and Liverpool, will become the club's first signing for a figure close to 60 million euros and will sign a contract until 2030.

"He is undergoing medical tests NOW. Xabi Alonso wanted to bring him," the Italian journalist specializing in transfer market reported.

Apparently, Xabi Alonso has pushed hard for his signing, and Florentino Pérez didn't waste time in signing a young and promising center-back who will play for his dream team.

Huijsen was born on April 14, 2005, in Amsterdam, but when he was young, he moved with his family to Marbella. His football training was in Málaga, until Juventus signed him (he had a loan spell at AS Roma) and then he landed at Bournemouth.

His debut with the Spanish national team was in March 2025, in the first leg of the UEFA Nations League quarterfinals against the Netherlands.
