He real Madrid has reached an agreement in principle to sign the young defender Dean Huijsencurrent player of Bournemouthin an operation valued at € 50 million, according to Rodrigo Faez de ESPN. The 20 -year -old will become the new merengue reinforcement after an outstanding season in the Premier League.
The White Club accelerated the negotiation after the recent defeat against FC Barcelona, which evidenced the need to reinforce its defensive line. Huijsen, who was also intended by teams such as Liverpool and Chelsea, quickly accepted the Madrid proposal and will sign a contract for five seasons, once the lawyers finish the details.
Real Madrid tried to include some of his players in the operation to reduce the cost of the clause, but Bournemouth rejected any barter, remaining firm in the £ 50 million stipulated.
Dean Huijsen, an already consolidated promise
This season, Huijsen has been a revelation in the defense of Bournemouth, with 30 appearances in the Premier League and a performance that earned a call to the Spanish team. His physical capacity, reading of play and tactical maturity have positioned him as one of the most promising young defenders in Europe.
Real Madrid does not stop: Trent Alexander-Arnold and Álvaro Carreras, in the sights
In addition to the signing of Huijsen, Real Madrid is also working to close the incorporation of Trent Alexander-Arnold, right side of Liverpool, with the aim of having it available for the Club World Cup in the United States this summer.
Another objective of the white team is the side of Benfica Álvaro Carreras, for whom an investment of around 60 million euros is expected.
With these operations, Real Madrid seeks to rejuvenate and strengthen its defense for a new stage, with the aim of continuing to compete at the highest level both in Spain and in Europe.
