Real Madrid Finalize £50m Deal for Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen Ahead of Club World Cup.

Real Madrid are close to signing Bournemouth’s 20-year-old centre-back Dean Huijsen for £50 million. The Spanish club will pay his release clause in three instalments, and Huijsen is expected to sign a five-year contract. The deal should be completed before next month’s Club World Cup in the United States.

Huijsen, who was born in the Netherlands but grew up in Spain, joined Bournemouth from Juventus last summer for £12.6 million. He quickly became a key player, making 34 appearances and scoring three goals this season. His strong performances attracted interest from top clubs like Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, and Newcastle, but Huijsen always wanted to play for Real Madrid.

Negotiations between Madrid and Bournemouth moved quickly after Madrid agreed to pay the full release clause. Huijsen’s representatives are now in Madrid to finish the personal terms. Madrid wanted to sign him early so he can join their squad for the Club World Cup. Bournemouth agreed to let him leave after the Premier League season, but he can still play for them in their last two games if selected.

Juventus and Malaga, Huijsen’s former clubs, will also benefit from the deal. Juventus will get 10% and Malaga 5% of the transfer fee.

Huijsen’s move is part of Real Madrid’s plan to strengthen their defence with young talent. Incoming manager Xabi Alonso pushed for the signing, seeing Huijsen as a future star. Madrid are also working to sign Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold and Benfica’s Álvaro Carreras before the Club World Cup.

Huijsen said he is focused on finishing the season well with Bournemouth and thanked the club for giving him a chance in the Premier League. He wants to help them reach Europe for the first time in their history before moving to Spain.

In Conclusion;

Dean Huijsen’s imminent £50 million transfer from Bournemouth to Real Madrid marks a strategic move by the Spanish giants to rejuvenate their defense with top young talent, fulfilling Huijsen’s long-held dream of playing for Madrid and positioning him to join the squad in time for the Club World Cup in the United States. The deal, which will be paid in three installments and includes a five-year contract, also benefits his former clubs Juventus and Malaga through sell-on clauses, while reflecting new manager Xabi Alonso’s vision for a stronger, more dynamic backline ahead of a new era at the club.
