Dean Huijsen’s father shared a Spanish cover story linking his son to Real Madrid, further fuelling speculation that the Bournemouth defender could return to Spain.
Dean Huijsen is emerging as a hot transfer topic—and the Real Madrid rumours have just gained traction thanks to a subtle but telling post from his father, Donny Huijsen.
The 19-year-old defender, currently excelling at Bournemouth in the Premier League, has already drawn interest from the Spanish giants. After impressing in the Spanish national team and showing his potential during his time at Juventus, Huijsen’s profile has continued to rise in England, with Madrid reportedly tracking him closely.
While the links are yet to be confirmed by either club, a recent development has sparked even more speculation. Spanish outlet AS featured Huijsen and his potential move to Real Madrid on its front page—and his father proudly shared the image on social media.
Donny Huijsen, a former professional striker who played for Ajax, Go Ahead Eagles, and AZ Alkmaar, appears thrilled by the growing interest. His Instagram repost has been seen by many Madrid fans as a subtle endorsement of the move—or at least of the family’s openness to it.
Dean Huijsen has previously spoken about his admiration for Real Madrid, and the fact that he now represents Spain internationally has only deepened the connection. At Bournemouth, he has made a significant impact with consistent performances and continues to attract the attention of top European clubs.
While no formal offer has been reported, the signs—including from inside the Huijsen family—suggest that a move to the Santiago Bernabéu could be more than just a rumour.
