"Last summer, Bayern Munich was closely linked to defender Dean Huijsen, who ultimately inked a deal with Real Madrid. His agent, Ali Barat, confirmed that Bayern Munich was in the mix. "Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle...they all wanted Dean, to be honest. We had about seven big clubs. But when Real Madrid came along, it was an easy decision. There were many clubs, but with Madrid there was no doubt," Barat told AS (as captured by @iMiaSanMia)."
"Huijsen has settled in quite nicely for Real Madrid, starting in all four games where he was available until picking up a red card and serving a suspension in LaLiga on Saturday. Bayern Munich will get some down time...not much, but some. The Bavarians are not back in action until Friday against Werder Bremen, so a day or two of rest will not be such a bad thing for a squad coming off of an arduous week."
Real Madrid acquired defender Dean Huijsen despite interest from Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle and several other big clubs, according to his agent Ali Barat. Huijsen started four matches for Real Madrid before receiving a red card and serving a suspension in LaLiga. Bayern Munich has a short break and will next play Werder Bremen on Friday, offering brief rest after an arduous week. Coverage plans include position-group evaluations, analysis of fan dissatisfaction after a 4-1 win over Hoffenheim, assessments of Lennart Karl and Kim Min-jae, and speculation about Harry Kane's contract and Ballon d'Or chances. Additional focus covers the 2026 striker market with Kane, Dušan Vlahović, Erling Haaland, and a farewell to a club legend.
