<p>Since signing for the club from Juventus last summer, the Dutch-born centre-back has delivered standout performances, helping the Cherries climb to seventh in the Premier League table. Huijsen has started Bournemouth's last six matches, playing a key role in their back-to-back clean-sheet victories over Manchester United and Tottenham. Not only has he been solid defensively, but he has also contributed offensively, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/dean-huijsen-chill-guy-bournemouth-scorer-mimics-meme-celebration-breaking-club-record-goal-against-tottenham/blt6bd3f6f041aa4d6e" target="_blank">scoring crucial goals in both encounters.</a></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>According to <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/32583398/real-madrid-bournemouth-transfer-shock-dean-huijsen/" target="_blank"><em>The Sun</em></a><em>, </em>European champions <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-dean-huijsen-bournemouth-william-saliba/bltd0d266b573df2a3b" target="_blank">Real Madrid have reportedly been monitoring Huijsen</a> for some time. Club scouts have been impressed by his maturity and seamless transition to the Premier League, prompting speculation about a potential move. Huijsen’s Spanish nationality adds another layer of appeal for Madrid. Though he was born in Netherlands, the defender moved to Spain at the age of five and has represented the Under-21 national team, with many tipping him for a senior call-up in the near future.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>The need for defensive reinforcements has become more pressing for Real Madrid after Eder Militao suffered a long-term injury at the end of last year. Ancelotti is believed to be prioritising defensive additions, and Huijsen has emerged as a prime target for the Spanish giants apart from Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>While Bournemouth is aware of Madrid's interest, the club is unlikely to entertain offers for Huijsen in the January transfer window. Sources suggest that any potential move would be more feasible during the summer. The young defender has reportedly told friends that he remains fully committed to Bournemouth, emphasising his focus on helping the team achieve their goals this season. </p>
