David Ornstein says £50m player wants to leave ‘quickly’ after meeting with Arsenal and Liverpool

We’re heading towards the summer transfer window, and there could well be some big moves within the Premier League this summer.

Indeed, some top Premier League players could be on the market come the end of the season.

Alexander Isak has been linked to Arsenal and Liverpool, Matheus Cunha could be on the move, while a number of top clubs want to sign Liam Delap.

There could also be moves on the defensive front too.

Dean Huijsen has been linked to a number of top clubs recently, and according to David Ornstein, speaking to NBC, Huijsen wants to get his next move lined up as quickly as possible.

Dean Huijsen wants to leave quickly

Ornstein shared what he knows about Huijsen and his situation at Bournemouth.

The journalist, again, re-iterated that Huijsen has a £50m release clause in his contract, noting that he’s had meetings with the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool lately.

Meanwhile, Ornstein also noted that Huijsen and Bournemouth want this deal done quickly.

“We’ll begin with Dean Huijsen, there’s a £50m release clause in his contract. He’s the subject of huge interest from the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Newcastle United and Tottenham, they’ve all been meeting with his representatives in recent weeks,” Ornstein said.

“The player and Bournemouth want this done and dusted relatively quickly, he’s expected to be a departure.”

Dean Huijsen’s options analysed

Dean Huijsen is in demand, and it would appear a number of top Premier League clubs want to sign him.

Howeverm Huijsen has to be careful as he prepares to make his next step, as he doesn’t want to be stuck on the bench of a top club.

Arsenal and Liverpool have met with Huijsen’s representatives, but perhaps a move to the Emirates or Anfield would be unwise.

Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba are an unbreakable centre-back pairing at Arsenal, while the same can be said of Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk at Liverpool.

Van Dijk is the best defender in the world according to some.

Meanwhile, Tottenham are terrible at the moment, and Huijsen would be better off joining a Champions League side.

Newcastle look likely to secure a top four spot, and after failing to sign Marc Guehi last summer, there should be a spot open at St James’ Park for Huijsen.

Perhaps a move to Tyneside would suit the Spaniard this summer.
