Premier League star may reject Real Madrid as Liverpool & Chelsea express interest

Dean Huijsen could be set to turn down a move to Real Madrid, with the young defender setting a deadline for his transfer decision as Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester United intensify their interest.

With Huijsen’s impressive performances catching the eye of several Premier League heavyweights, all four clubs are reportedly prepared to trigger his €58million release clause (£50m).

While Real Madrid had been linked with a potential return for the defender, having previously spent time in their youth academy, sources from Relevo indicate that Huijsen is inclined to remain in the Premier League.

The 20-year-old is said to be keen on continuing his career in England, despite Madrid’s long-standing interest.

However, the Spanish giants are reportedly still undecided about pursuing the deal, as they are cautious about spending heavily on a young centre-back who has only recently broken through to the top level.

Madrid’s reluctance to meet the €58m price tag could be further influenced by their focus on other areas of the squad in this summer’s transfer market.

Meanwhile, Huijsen’s future looks increasingly likely to be decided by clubs in England, with Premier League suitors appearing to have the upper hand.

Other European clubs, including Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, have also shown interest.

Bayern, seeking a promising young central defender, may struggle to compete financially with Premier League offers due to their own budget limitations.

On the other hand, PSG, with their renowned financial resources, could easily meet Bournemouth’s valuation but may find the pull of the Premier League too strong for Huijsen to resist.

While Huijsen has expressed deep gratitude for Bournemouth’s role in his development, it seems his time on the south coast is drawing to a close.

The young defender is expected to make a decision on his future next month, with a move to one of England’s top clubs seeming increasingly likely.
