On Friday, AS reported AFC Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen has ended up on Real Madrid’s radar. It was also stated the Cherries won’t sell him cheaply without mentioning figures.
Saturday’s edition of Mundo Deportivo backs up the La Liga side’s interest in the defender and provides the latest.
Bournemouth signed the 19-year-old from Juventus in the summer window, and he made 13 appearances this season.
The centre-back impressed and scored in his side’s recent wins over Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur. His rise with the Premier League side has seen Carlo Ancelotti’s side take notice.
Real Madrid lost Leny Yoro to Manchester United in the summer and are still looking for a young centre-back. The Bournemouth player is a rough diamond and is one of the ‘most liked’ by the Champions League winners.
Los Blancos are aware they must ‘dig deep into their pockets’ to snatch Huijsen away from Andoni Iraola’s side.
The Spain U21 international’s deal lasts until 2030 and Transfermarkt currently values him at €18m, but Mundo state he won’t leave Bournemouth for less than €30-40m.
Real Madrid will monitor the defender until the end of this season and evaluate whether to sign him next summer.
