Dean Huijsen Reveals Real Madrid’s True Scale After £50m Move

Dean Huijsen has shared his thoughts on joining Real Madrid. He said the size and passion of the club are beyond what he imagined. The young defender said, “You can imagine the size of Real Madrid, but living it is different. You really realize what this club means.”

WHAT HAPPENED?

Huijsen was introduced as a Real Madrid player this transfer window after moving from Bournemouth. Real Madrid paid his £50 million release fee to sign the 20-year-old Spain international. Huijsen signed a five-year deal and wears the number 24 shirt. He was noticed last season after a strong first year in the Premier League. He played 29 matches and scored three goals for Bournemouth. Huijsen chose Real Madrid over top English clubs and said he has always wanted to join them. He is ready to work hard for the world’s biggest club.

REAL MADRID’S HOPES AND HUJISEN’S RISE

With Real Madrid’s defense facing many injuries last season, Huijsen joins a team wanting to reclaim the top spot in LaLiga and Europe. Madrid placed second in LaLiga last season and were ousted in the Champions League quarter-finals. The team lost every Clásico game to Barcelona, increasing the need to boost the squad this summer. Huijsen, standing 1.96 meters tall, is praised for his defense and ball skills. He was even nominated for Premier League Young Player of the Year. He looks up to Sergio Ramos and is prepared to fight for trophies right away, with the Club World Cup around the corner in June.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR HUJISEN AND REAL MADRID?

Huijsen is joining Real Madrid during a transition phase. Xabi Alonso is anticipated to replace Carlo Ancelotti as manager; in fact, Real Madrid have begun the new La Liga season perfectly under manager Xabi Alonso. The team is also rumored to be considering more defensive additions, such as Trent Alexander-Arnold and Álvaro Carreras. In LaLiga, Madrid has a tough task to regain the title after last season’s letdown. They bagun the La Liga wiht a perfect record and after three matches are level on points with Athletic Bilbao after a 100% winning record, an two points ahead of Barcelona. Every point will be crucial as Madrid strives to reclaim their status as Spain’s top team and gives Huijsen the chance to show why they spent so much on him.
