Dean Huijsen reveals he has exit clause in Bournemouth contract and drops big hint on his future amid interest from Real Madrid, Liverpool and Bayern

<p>The Dutch-Spanish defender made headlines last summer after sealing a move to Bournemouth from Juventus in a transfer that could eventually reach <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/vincent-kompany-desperate-premier-league-defender-bayern-munich-move-ahead-real-madrid-liverpool-former-juventus-star/blta21c3637e3a7fa44" target="_blank">€18 million (£15 million).</a> Despite the pressure of adapting to a new league and environment, the 19-year-old has been a standout performer for the Cherries, featuring in 25 Premier League games this season.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Huijsen's performances have not gone unnoticed, with several European heavyweights keeping tabs on his development. Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Liverpool are all reportedly interested, and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/chelsea-huge-boost-bournemouth-dean-huijsen-s-release-clause-revealed-interest-from-blues-real-madrid-bayern-munich/blt737927fedca43d77#cs771a9ab19510f0a9" target="_blank">with a £50 million release clause</a> set to become active this summer, speculation <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/real-madrid-bid-bournemouth-dean-huijsen-gbp16m-juventus/blt3a5245cd69c03ab8" target="_blank">around his next move is intensifying.</a></p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>During an interview with El Chiringuito TV, Huijsen discussed the details of his contract, which currently runs until 2030 and has an exit clause. </p><p>"I have a contract until 2030, [but] I do have a [release] clause,” he stated, acknowledging the exit route that could be triggered. </p><p>When asked specifically about the prospect of donning the famous white jersey of Real Madrid, Huijsen was diplomatic but didn’t rule out the idea. “I don't know, we'll see. It's a big team. Every player wants to play in the maximum [level] possible,” he replied.</p><p>The defender added: "A friend called me and said...'Go to Real Madrid'. I laughed. What am I going to say?"</p><p></p>

WHAT HUIJSEN SAID

<p>Huijsen also reflected on the players and figures who have inspired him. One name stood out — former <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/dean-huijsen-warned-off-blockbuster-move-real-madrid-former-coach-hands-bournemouth-brutal-reality-check/blt46bf0b7b810ee7e4" target="_blank">Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos.</a></p><p>"Sergio Ramos has been my idol since I was little," he admitted.</p><p>That admiration for Real Madrid legends doesn’t stop there. The Bournemouth starlet also praised current Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti. “He's a very good manager. He's not at Real Madrid for nothing. He deserves credit,” Huijsen noted.</p>

DID YOU KNOW?

<p>Real Madrid are currently in need of reinforcements at the back. Injuries to key defenders Éder Militao and David Alaba — both of whom have suffered ACL setbacks this season — have left Carlo Ancelotti short of experienced options. As a result, academy graduate Raúl Asencio has been forced to step in alongside seasoned centre-back Antonio Rudiger. This lack of depth has prompted Los Blancos to look toward young, promising defenders ahead of the transfer window, with Huijsen emerging as a strong candidate.</p>
