Sensational comeback! Juventus eyeing return of Dean Huijsen from Real Madrid

Juventus are seriously considering a blockbuster transfer this summer—bringing back their former academy product, Dean Huijsen.

Details: According to La Stampa, Juventus are closely monitoring the situation around the 20-year-old defender, who joined Real Madrid in the summer of 2025 for a hefty €60 million fee.

Although the Spanish-Dutch talent had an impressive season in Madrid, the Los Blancos management is weighing up options that would give the player even more regular first-team action.

Real Madrid are not ruling out the possibility of selling the defender, but their preferred scenario is a loan move. This would help the Spanish giants ease competition within the squad while retaining control over Huijsen’s future, allowing them to assess his progress in a year’s time.

For Juventus, it’s a chance to correct their biggest transfer blunder of last year: the club sold Dean to Bournemouth for just €15 million, after which his value soared fourfold. Now, the Turin side are ready to admit their mistake and bring the centre-back back to Serie A, where he previously shone for Roma.
