A young player, he has been a regular starter this season (78% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.96 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Huijsen.
Judged on this season alone, Huijsen graded 46 — an excellent campaign that ranks top 11% of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga, on 8 clean sheets and 2.96 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 38 → 46). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 90, top 3% of the 75 centre-backs in the La Liga. At 21 Huijsen is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 89 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Huijsen missed 8 games through injury and 1 suspension (muscle, overload, yellow cards) out of roughly 38 this season. The 28 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
A career still climbing — Huijsen is at his peak right now, and the curve hasn't flattened.
Output in context · Real Madrid finished 2nd of 20 · a title-challenging side
2.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 8 clean sheets across 28 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 20) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 2 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Availability. On the pitch for 78% of available minutes — a dependable presence in the XI.
- Attacking threat. Chips in from deep: 0.18 goal involvements per 90, useful for a central defender.
- Pedigree. Performing in a top-tier setting (team strength 95.5/100).
- Ceiling. High potential at just 21 — room to grow into a bigger role.
Watch points
- Few red flags. No obvious weaknesses in the current-season profile — consistency is the next test.
Outlook
With a Rating of 89.6, Huijsen carries the 2nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the La Liga (top 3%). Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.96 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 21 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (97/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow. With this floor already at 21, the ceiling gets tested by a step up in level — one to track.
