Dean Huijsen - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Clears illness Huijsen (illness) returned to full team training and is an option for Sunday's clash against Sevilla, according to the club.

Impact Huijsen had been left out of Thursday's squad against Real Oviedo after his viral infection failed to clear in time, but his swift return to collective sessions is a clean bill of health heading into the final fixture of Real Madrid's season. The young center-back should push to regain his spot in the defensive lineup against Sevilla, with Raul Asencio having covered in his absence during the Oviedo fixture.

Out against Oviedo Huijsen (illness) was not included in the squad for Thursday's clash against Real Oviedo, according to the club.

Impact Huijsen's absence confirms the viral infection has not cleared in time despite returning to training earlier in the week. Raul Asencio is expected to continue filling in at center-back, with no return timeline provided beyond Thursday's fixture.

Returns to training Wednesday Huijsen (illness) rejoined the squad in training after recovering from a viral infection and could be an option for Thursday's clash against Real Oviedo, according to the club.

Impact Huijsen had been a late scratch from the starting XI for Sunday's Clasico against Barcelona after feeling weak and faint during warmups, making his return to the training pitch an encouraging development. The defender's availability for Thursday will depend on how he responds to the session, with Raul Asencio having filled in during his absence. Getting Huijsen back in contention for the final fixtures of the season would give coach Alvaro Arbeloa additional options in the defensive unit as Real Madrid close out the campaign.

Late scratch Sunday Huijsen was a late scratch from the starting XI Sunday against Barcelona due to an apparent injury.

Impact Huijsen was dropped from the starting XI following warmups Sunday, as the defender appears to have suffered an injury in the build-up. This leaves the club with Raul Asencio starting, a typical switch for the club. This should have minor implications on the remainder of the season for Real Madrid, but may be something to watch for the Spanish National Team if the injury is even close to serious.

Available to return Huijsen has served his card accumulation ban against Celta Vigo and could play again in upcoming fixtures.

Impact Huijsen should have a decent chance to start in at least one of next week's clashes against Manchester City and Elche in Champions League and La Liga action, respectively, challenging Raul Asencio and Antonio Rudiger at center-back. The former Bournemouth man has been limited due to injuries and suspension lately, but he should eventually be reliable for his averages of 4.4 clearances and 1.3 tackles per contest.

Accumulates five yellow cards Huijsen will be suspended for the next league matchup against Celta Vigo after receiving his fifth yellow card of the season Monday versus Getafe.

Impact Huijsen came off the bench in his comeback from a thigh injury, only to earn a one-game ban due to the card accumulation. The defender will aim to return on March 11 in UCL action against Machester City. Until then, Antonio Rudiger and David Alaba will be the likeliest center-back starters with Raul Asencio (neck) and Eder Militao (hamstring) still dealing with injuries.

Fit for bench Huijsen (thigh) is on the bench for Monday's match against Geatfe.

Impact Huijsen is back with his team this week after training earlier, making the bench for Monday's contest. The defender is a clear starter when fit and should return to that role in the place of David Alaba, likely being eased in from the bench Monday to secure his fitness, especially when facing a weaker team.

MARCH 2 • ROTOWIRE

Trains with team Saturday Huijsen (thigh) was spotted back in team training Saturday and could be an option for Monday's clash against Getafe, according to Madrid Xtra.

Impact Huijsen picked up a thigh issue in training at the end of last week, but the center-back was back out with the squad Saturday, signaling the setback was minor. He now has two full days to ramp back up before Monday's showdown with Getafe and remains in the mix to suit up. That said, if he's not fully cleared, David Alaba, Aurelien Tchouameni or Alvaro Carreras are lined up as options to slide into the left center-back role for the Merengues.
