Dean Huijsen Trains with Real Madrid for the Supercup
The Real Madrid is intensifying its preparation for the Spanish Supercup with a notable addition to the training sessions. The center-back Dean Huijsen, on loan from Juventus, is already working with the main group under Carlo Ancelotti's orders. ⚽
A Defensive Reinforcement Joins the Group
The 18-year-old Dutch footballer participated this Monday in his first session with the first team at the Valdebebas Sports City. His arrival on loan aims to provide depth to the Madrid defense to face a key stretch of the season. The immediate goal is the Thursday match in Saudi Arabia.
Key Details of the Semifinal Match:- Opponent: Atlético de Madrid.
- Venue: King Abdullah Stadium in Jeddah.
- Time: 20:00 (Spanish peninsular time).
The squad is trying to maintain maximum concentration despite the media noise surrounding the team.
The Big Question: Kylian Mbappé
While Huijsen integrates without issues, a shadow of doubt covers the star forward Kylian Mbappé. The white club has not officially confirmed whether the Frenchman will travel to Saudi Arabia or be available to play in the tournament. This uncertainty generates great anticipation just days before the Madrid derby in the semifinals.
Tournament Context and Objectives:- The Supercup is the first national title at stake this season.
- Real Madrid seeks to defend the trophy it won in the previous edition.
- Ancelotti's team is focusing all its efforts on overcoming Atlético and reaching the final.
Focus on the Collective Goal
Despite the public debate about Mbappé's future, the focus within the team's dynamic is solely on sporting performance. The fans, although excited about the possible arrival of the Frenchman, can now only watch as a young defender, Dean Huijsen, earns a spot in training with his attitude and work, without raising doubts about his availability. 🏆
