E-Noticies, @deanhuijsen There's a surprise, Dean Huijsen's friend is linked to Barça: Joan Laporta agrees and pays
Dean Huijsen could see his friend as a rival if Joan Laporta decides to strengthen Barça with his signing
Barça are working on strengthening their defensive line after Iñigo Martínez's departure, which has left a significant gap. Ronald Araújo raises many doubts due to his fragility in duels and his inconsistency, while Andreas Christensen's contract is expiring and Flick doesn't seem to fully trust him. That combination forces the club to look for immediate solutions and to find a reliable partner for Pau Cubarsí in the center of the defense.
High-profile names have appeared on the agenda, such as Ibrahima Konaté or Marc Guéhi, both established in the European elite. However, since there is still time before the next transfer window, the sporting management are also analyzing other possibilities for other positions. It is in this scenario that a most unexpected option arises, surprising everyone: the best partner Dean Huijsen has ever had.
Kenan Yildiz, Dean Huijsen's partner, is linked with Barça
Kenan Yildiz has established himself as one of the most promising young talents in Europe, with the ability to perform in several positions. He can play as an attacking midfielder, winger, or creative midfielder, showing dribbling skills, vision, and determination in the opponent's box, qualities valued by Hansi Flick. His profile fits Barça's DNA, based on ball control, offensive movement, and pressing after losing possession.
Sporting management believe that Kenan Yildiz would bring youth, energy, and unpredictability, strengthening an attacking sector that needs alternatives. Joan Laporta understands that betting on this profile makes strategic sense, as long as the necessary economic and sporting conditions are met. The Turk has also shown remarkable maturity at Juventus, which makes him a candidate to make the leap to a bigger club like Barça
Barça would leave Dean Huijsen KO
Barça's interest in Kenan Yildiz also has a media and symbolic component due to his friendship with Dean Huijsen. Both shared a locker room at Juventus, where they forged a close relationship that is still kept alive beyond the field. That connection adds extra appeal to the operation.
However, Kenan Yildiz's signing won't be possible unless significant departures occur in Barça's squad first. Joan Laporta is clear that it is essential to free up salary space and also to move on players who are not decisive. The Turk's market value is 50 million, and Juventus won't let him leave for less.
