Chelsea Send Scouts To Watch This Spanish Player In Action: One For The Future? | OneFootball

According to a report by Spanish outlet MARCA, Premier League club Chelsea recently sent their scouts to watch Spanish younster Dean Huijsen in action against Netherlands in the ongoing international break.

Huijsen has been doing well this seasons as he has featured across 27 games and has two goals under his hat. He is averaging 1.2 shots, 1.8 key passes, and 5.3 clearances per game (stats via whoscored).

The Spanish young defender has the ability to resist pressure and maintain his composure under pressure. He is also comfortable on the ball with both feets. With intelligent reading and adaptibility, he is a talent to watch out for!

Chelsea to face stiff competition from Real Madrid for Dean Huijsen

Though Chelsea have several centre-backs, their interest in Dean Huijsen makes sense. While Wesley Fofana has struggled with recurring fitness issues, the likes of Benoit Badiashile, Axel Disasi, and Trevoh Chalobah remain uncertain for the future.

Hence, the Blues want to sign Huijsen, who appears to be a great talent. He is also proving himself in the Premier League and is likely to improve with more experience. He can be a great long-term acquisition for any club at this point.

However, getting the signature of the 19-year-old won’t be an easy task. With multiple clubs tracking the young talent, Chelsea will face stiff competition. One of the clubs that are in the race is Real Madrid, who also sent their scouts to watch Huijsen in action.
