Up-and-coming talents from La Liga's two biggest clubs on Saturday linked up with their teammates at international level in Spain. The pair in question? Lamine Yamal, and Dean Huijsen. Wide-man Lamine is of course fresh off a spectacular individual campaign on the books of Barcelona, with a haul of 43 direct goal contributions enough to earn the 17-year-old an expected call-up to Luis de la Fuente's latest squad.

Dean Huijsen has of course taken his place front and centre in the Spanish media headlines over recent weeks, after sealing a move back to his home country with Xabi Alonso's Blancos.

📸 How was this masterpiece ruled out? Lamine-Huijsen link-up and a screamer
It could have been 3-0 for Spain. Luis de la Fuente's team is showing an outstanding level against France and is dominating the French side at will. And before halftime, the lead could have tripled. When taking a free kick, Lamine Yamal placed the ball in a SUBLIME way, looking for Dean Huijsen. And the center-back from Malaga pulled off a shot out of his hat that only a few geniuses can manage. A true wonder of a goal. But not everything could be perfect. An offside position by Dean Huijsen meant that, after VAR review, the goal did not count. Michael Oliver disallowed the goal for Spain that could have been their third. What a shame, truly. This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

'A busy summer transfer window and a major conundrum in between the sticks'
I definitely predict a busy summer transfer window for started early for the Cherries in regards to departures when giants Real Madrid activated Dean Huijsen's release clause. One mightily impressive season from the young centre-back was enough for Madrid to pay out a £50m fee, so does he now need replacing?In Illia Zabarnyi and Marcos Senesi, Bournemouth have two reliable centre-back options, but with Chris Mepham set to depart, another young centre-half may well be required. I anticipate bids to be made for the promising Nantes defender Nathan Zeze, who has been heavily departure is anticipated imminently, with left-back Milos Kerkez expected to sign for Bournemouth did recruit in that position in January by signing Julio Soler, another option will almost certainly be needed. I'd therefore be tempted to see if Real Madrid would allow their back-up left-back Fran Garcia to come to the south coast, having previously worked with Andoni Iraola at Rayo Vallecano.A major conundrum is in between the sticks for the season, Kepa Arrizabalaga was impressive, but he was only on a season-long loan from Chelsea. Meanwhile, Neto was out on loan as cover for Arsenal, Mark Travers had a good loan spell with Middlesbrough and hot prospect Alex Paulsen spent the season with is difficult to know what route the club will take, but I fully expect them to try to secure the services of Kepa on a permanent basis.I would imagine both Neto and Travers will leave, and in turn that may allow Alex Paulsen to return as the club's number could be a rollercoaster summer!Find more from Tom Jordan at Back of the Net, external
