Flight to Real Madrid at 20 years old
The Spanish neo-international (2 selections) takes on a new dimension. Already revealed during his visit to Roma loan between January and June 2024, he continued his expected development during his season in the Premier League where Bournemouth ended in the soft belly. After three months of competition of a gentle integration, the 20 -year -old joined Andoni Iraola's starting eleven to never get out of it (34 games in all competitions, 3 goals and 1 decisive pass).
His performances first allowed him to join Roja at the expense of the Netherlands where he evolved until U19 then now Real Madrid. Huijsen will be expected at the turn in a team where looks and judgments are constant, especially since Casa Blanca will be keen to turn the page of a difficult last season. In addition to this, he has a real card to play between the injuries of Militao and Alaba, the drop in level of Rüdiger and the extrasportive setbacks of Asencio.
