Newcastle United are reportedly keen on signing 19-year-old Spanish international Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by Football Insider, Newcastle United will need to secure UEFA Champions League qualification to sign the 19-year-old Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen in the summer transfer window.
The Dutch-born centre-back is on the radar of Chelsea, Liverpool and Real Madrid as well. The youngster is regarded as one of the finest young defensive talents in European football right now, and he could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for Newcastle United if they can get the deal done.
The Magpies need to sign a quality central defender to partner Sven Botman at the heart of the defence. Signing the 19-year-old would be a solid future investment. The Spanish international is valued at £50 million, and Newcastle United have the resources to get the deal done.
The teenage sensation is well settled in English football, and he will only improve with coaching and experience. He could develop into a key player for Newcastle United with the proper guidance.
Chelsea, Liverpool, and Real Madrid could use Dean Huijsen
Chelsea need to bring in defensive additions as well. Benoit Badiashile and Axel Disasi are expected to leave the West London club permanently in the summer, and they will need to be replaced. Signing a talented young defender like Huijsen could prove to be a wise decision.
Similarly, Liverpool need a successor for club captain Virgil van Dijk, who will be out of contract in the summer. The Reds have not managed to agree on an extension with their captain yet, and they will need to find a quality alternative in the summer.
Real Madrid are looking to build a formidable squad for the future, and they need a young defender like Huijsen. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the Bournemouth prodigy to join them. Los Blancos will be hoping to win the league title and the Champions League next season, and they need to bring in upgrades on players like David Alaba. Huijsen could be a quality acquisition for them, and he would be a long-term partner for Eder Militao.
