Netherlands-born Dean Huijsen likely to play for Spain
Dean Huijsen is making headlines after his last great performance against Frosinone, including a screamer. The centre-back's good performance has not gone unnoticed and the radar of the Spanish Football Federation has picked him up. Therefore, according to 'Marca', it is possible that we are facing a new nationalised player for the Spanish national team, although in principle it would be to join the ranks of 'La Rojita'.
Huijsen was born in the Netherlands, but grew up in Marbella and was part of the youth academy of Malaga CF. The young player's wishes are to wear the Spain jersey and, for this reason, his personal lawyers and the Federation are working to sort out the paperwork.
The Roma defender stood out from a very young age and the Andalusian side could not keep him. Real Madrid were considering signing him, but in the end it was Juventus who landed him. He made his debut with the first team in Turin and this year he has gone on loan to the Italian capital to continue his progress. Mouriho personally asked for him at the time.
There are already precedents in the Spanish national team of nationalised centre-backs. Specifically, the cases of Aymeric Laporte and Robin Le Normand. Dean Huijsen, as an U21 player, could be the next and become one of the most promising Spanish players for the future of 'La Roja'.
