Why I Picked Number 24 Shirt at Real Madrid – Dean Huijsen -...

  • Real Madrid planned to officially present 20-year-old Spanish defender Dean Huijsen on Tuesday, June 10th, 2025, following his signing from Bournemouth.
  • The presentation was delayed due to Huijsen's international duties with Spain at the Nations League, despite the club agreeing to his release clause last month.
  • Huijsen chose the number 24 shirt, which was available, and declined number 4 worn by David Alaba and previously by Sergio Ramos, calling any number an honor at Real Madrid.
  • Huijsen explained that he is not focused on wearing the number 4 jersey or any specific number, expressing his deep connection to Real Madrid by calling it "the club of my life" and ending with "Hala Madrid." Meanwhile, President Florentino Pérez commended his refined style of play.
  • With Xabi Alonso coaching and new signings including Trent Alexander-Arnold, Real Madrid looks to start a new era addressing defensive struggles and places high expectations on Huijsen.
