Confirmed, from Atlético de Madrid to Real Madrid, official signing: 'Goodbye to Huijsen'

Dean Huijsen was exposed against Atlético de Madrid, which is why Florentino Pérez has accelerated efforts to finalize a new signing to strengthen Xabi Alonso's defense. Madrid was thoroughly outplayed by Atlético de Madrid, who had secured the signing of a central defender: goodbye to Simeone, Florentino Pérez offers more money and signs him. Madrid made a big bet by signing Dean Huijsen, but the Spanish central defender is raising some doubts and, as a result, Madrid will sign now to reinforce the backline.

Xabi Alonso is clear that Dean Huijsen will remain very important, but he believes he needs more defenders to rotate and increase the level of demand in Madrid. In fact, with Eder Militao's injury against Atlético de Madrid, he had to bring in Raúl Asencio, who is currently struggling and is not in Xabi Alonso's plans. In fact, the Madrid coach has pressured Florentino Pérez because he believes the defensive replacements are limited: Dean Huijsen can't always be a starter and the Madrid coach acknowledges it.

The transfer market will be closed until early 2026, but Madrid is already forced to get ahead of schedule: Dean Huijsen isn't performing and Xabi Alonso signs. Atlético de Madrid had a pre-agreement with the central defender in question, but Madrid has moved ahead and almost has the deal done: he will arrive in the winter transfer window. What's the main reason? Xabi Alonso wants more replacements, especially because he believes young talents like Dean Huijsen are still not 100% ready to face top teams in Europe.

Confirmed, from Atlético de Madrid to Real Madrid, official signing: "Goodbye to Huijsen"

Atlético de Madrid ran over Madrid at the Metropolitano in a match where the white defense was left very exposed. Neither Dean Huijsen nor Álvaro Carreras performed at the required level, but Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde also didn't do well, and they should have stepped up against Cholo Simeone's team. Xabi Alonso's reaction was quick and very forceful: he finalizes a signing from Atlético de Madrid and could send Dean Huijsen to the bench starting in the winter.

Dean Huijsen will remain a starter at Madrid, but things could change during next January, when Madrid plans to sign a new central defender. This central defender had an agreement with Atlético de Madrid, but Madrid has entered the race and the footballer has chosen Xabi Alonso's squad.

Everything is closed and confirmed: Madrid finalizes a last-minute signing and plans to create problems for Dean Huijsen, who will have to step up soon.

Real problems for Dean Huijsen: he leaves Atlético de Madrid to help Xabi Alonso, it's already confirmed

The transfer market is closed, but Madrid, driven by Dean Huijsen, is already working toward the next transfer window: the winter one. Xabi Alonso knows Madrid wanted to sign in the Premier League, so he has decided to take a step forward: he pushes for a new signing for the Madrid club, already approved.

Madrid is preparing €40 million to sign now and finalize the arrival of this talent during the next winter transfer window: goodbye Atlético de Madrid. Xabi Alonso wants to stay alive until the end of the season and for that he wants to count on Ibrahima Konaté, Liverpool's central defender whose contract ends in June 2026.

Konaté still hasn't renewed and Madrid plans to offer €40 million in this upcoming winter transfer window. Liverpool could accept, especially because they don't want to let the French footballer leave for free, who reportedly has already spoken with Xabi Alonso: problems are looming for Dean Huijsen.
