Real Madrid priority target breaks silence on potential summer move – ‘The truth is…’

Real Madrid’s lack of depth at centre-back has been a talking point for several months now, especially after Eder Militao’s season-ending injury weeks after returning from an ACL tear.

Anyway, the club has faught despite the lack of resources and has done well under Carlo Ancelotti’s tutelage, but it is clear that a lot must change before next season.

A new signing in the department is thus on the cards and Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen is one of the top names on Los Blancos’ list.

Real Madrid target speaks

The young centre-back is currently on duty for the Spanish national team and even made his debut last night after an injury to Barcelona defender Pau Cubarsi.

Speaking to the media, via MARCA, after the game, Huijsen was asked if he would like to don the special white jersey of Real Madrid and the player did provide signals that he was tempted by the opportunity.
