2025 Fantasy Outlook
Huijsen is another new defensive addition for Real Madrid, and potentially the most important one. He was one of the best young center-backs in the Premier League last season, excellent on the ball and stout defensively. He offered some upside offensively, scoring three goals and adding a pair of assists, as well as tacking on the usual defensive stats. He won't have nearly as much to do in his own box for Madrid, but he should get plenty of chances for clean sheets, and he has the ability to be a major threat from set pieces.
Dealing with groin discomfort
Huijsen is set to undergo a scan after experiencing groin discomfort while on international duty with Spain, according to Mario Cortegana from The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Huijsen wasn't included in the Spain match squad for Saturday's clash against Georgia after suffering groin discomfort in the training session on Friday. His absence is likely a precaution but the center-back will undergo a scan to know the extend of the issue. Huijsen should be back available for the clash against Elche on Nov. 23, but if he had to miss the game due to a bigger issue, David Alaba could see increased playing time for the Merengues while he is out.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Two EPL giants after him
Arsenal and Liverpool are vying to sign Huijsen, according to Sky Germany.
ANALYSIS
Huijsen seems set to leave Bournemouth in the summer, and all signs point to the center-back playing in a bigger club in the 2025-26 season. Both Arsenal and Liverpool could use him, but Real Madrid, a team with even bigger needs defensively, could move for him as well. The Spanish international would be keen on joining Real Madrid if the chance arises.
