Report: Arsenal & Chelsea face competition for £50m transfer | OneFootball

Arsenal and Chelsea are reportedly set to face competition from Real Madrid for the potential transfer of Bournemouth defender Dean Huijsen.

The 19-year-old has impressed in the Premier League this season and it looks likely that there’ll be plenty of clubs chasing him this summer.

CaughtOffside were recently informed of Huijsen being a target for the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Fabrizio Romano also told us that Chelsea have Huijsen as one of the names on their radar ahead of the summer.

Now a report from Todo Fichajes claims that the Spain Under-21 international is also a target for Real Madrid, while their report also mentions Chelsea, as well as Bayern Munich.

Huijsen looks like he has a big future in the game, and his next move could be a hugely important decision in his career.

It’s never easy picking between big names like Arsenal, Chelsea and Real Madrid, but one imagines it’s still going to be a little while before we see what Huijsen decides.

One imagines Chelsea would represent Huijsen’s best chance of playing regularly, as the Blues need upgrades on the likes of Levi Colwill, Tosin Adarabioyo and Benoit Badiashile.

It’s less clear if Huijsen would play as much at Arsenal, where he’d face competition for William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are probably the biggest name in world football, so it would be quite something to say no to them if they come in with an offer.

Still, it’s also slightly hard to see Huijsen playing regularly at the Bernabeu when Real already have the likes of Antonio Rudiger, Eder Militao and Raul Asencio to choose from in defence.
