"Newcastle United and Aston Villa have submitted an offer to sign the Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen. The talented young defender recently joined Real Madrid from Bournemouth, and the Spanish club has no intention of sanctioning his departure. They will not enter into negotiations with the English clubs, and it remains to be seen whether Newcastle or Aston Villa move on to other targets."
"They could use a quality central defender, and they were preparing to spend 40 million (34.5m) on the Spaniard, as per Fichajes. However, the 20-year-old is a key part of Real Madrid's plans, and it is no surprise that they are not prepared to consider any move. Aston Villa are pushing for Champions League qualification, and they are likely to be an attractive destination for players if they finish in the top four."
"Newcastle are also looking to put together a formidable team. They need quality long-term alternatives to players like Dan Burn and Fabian Schar. There is no doubt that the Spanish defender would have been ideal for them, but the move seems unrealistic. Real Madrid are looking to build a team for the future, and they will not want to lose one of the most talented young defenders in Europe and football right now."
Newcastle United and Aston Villa submitted a bid for Real Madrid centre-back Dean Huijsen. The 20-year-old joined Real Madrid from Bournemouth and is regarded as one of Europe's most talented young defenders. Real Madrid will not sanction his departure and will not enter negotiations with the English clubs. Both English clubs had been prepared to spend around €40 million (£34.5m). Aston Villa aim for Champions League qualification and could attract players if they finish in the top four. Newcastle need long-term defensive reinforcements and both clubs will explore other targets to strengthen their squads.
