A Liverpool-linked player has recently made comments on Real Madrid links.
Liverpool have been monitoring several young defensive talents as they plan for the future.
With Virgil van Dijk possibly entering the final years of his career, the club is keeping an eye on potential long-term replacements.
One name that has emerged recently is Bournemouth’s Dean Huijsen.
The Dutch centre-back has impressed with his performances, showing composure beyond his years.
His ability to read the game and his physical presence make him a strong candidate for a top club move.
Liverpool are not the only ones interested, though.
One of the biggest clubs in world football has now entered the conversation, making Huijsen’s future even more uncertain.
Liverpool-linked player comments on Real Madrid links
Huijsen recently addressed the speculation, calling Madrid’s interest “an honor” but making it clear that he is fully focused on finishing the season with Bournemouth.
He said, “It’s an honor when such a big club is interested in me,” but also added that he is taking things one step at a time.
Despite the growing transfer talk, the 19-year-old is staying professional.
He stated that he will evaluate his options at the end of the season, showing that he is in no rush to make a decision.
He said, “I’m only thinking about ending the season well, then when the time comes, we’ll see.”
Liverpool will be watching closely.
A move to Madrid is always tempting for young players, but the Reds could still be in the mix.
Huijsen’s next move is uncertain, but one thing is clear – his performances are not going unnoticed.
