OFFICIAL: Huijsen leaves Spain’s training camp with muscle injury

The Spanish Football Federation has announced that Real Madrid defender Dean Huijsen has sustained a muscle injury, which will force him to leave Spain’s training camp.

Huijsen has been withdrawn from the squad ahead of the last qualifying match for the 2026 World Cup, where Spain is set to face Turkey. The decision comes due to muscle discomfort that had already prevented him from playing against Georgia. The club has been kept informed of his condition at all times.

Fortunately, this is expected to be a minor injury. While team doctors will continue to monitor his status over the coming games, it appears that Huijsen will not need to miss much playing time.

In the meantime, Xabi Alonso may decide to start Raúl Asencio when Real Madrid visits Elche next weekend. Fans will be watching closely to see how the team adjusts without Huijsen in defense.
