Dean Huijsen next club odds: Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea the favourites

Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea are seen as the three front-runners in the latest Dean Huijsen next club odds released by Ladbrokes ahead of the summer transfer window.

A report towards the end of April indicated that Huijsen was favouring a move to Chelsea this summer, but the latest odds from Ladbrokes actually have Liverpool and Newcastle as just as likely as Chelsea to secure the Spaniard's signature.

Huijsen only joined Bournemouth from Juventus last summer, but after an impressive debut season in the Premier League, and with a £50m release clause in his contract, a summer move seems rather likely.

As noted, Chelsea are one of the front-runners to sign Huijsen this summer, a position they share with Liverpool and Newcastle, who are seen as the club with the joint most probability of signing the defender.

Liverpool are being dubbed by the bookies as the joint-favourites to sign Huijsen, just as likely as Newcastle and Chelsea but with a better chance than Real Madrid to sign the player at the end of the season.

The race is pretty even though, with third-favourites Real Madrid's assumed probability of 22% of securing the player being only 3% less than Liverpool's.

Arsenal are also in the top five favourites, but it's hard to see why Mikel Arteta would want to sign another defender, despite Huijsen's quality, when other areas of the Gunners' squad need more improvements.

Tottenham are viewed by the bookies as major outsiders to sign Huijsen this summer, with the club being priced the same as Champions League semi-finalists Barcelona and PSG.

Bayern Munich are seen as more likely destinations for Huijsen than Spurs, PSG and Barcelona, but the odds of any of those moves happening are longer than Arsenal, Newcastle, Chelsea, Liverpool and Real Madrid transfers.

Dean Huijsen may not be the only Bournemouth defender leaving this summer, with Milos Kerkez also being tipped by the bookies for a move to Liverpool this summer.

While Huijsen is being tipped for a move within the Premier League, the bookies think Jamie Vardy will drop down to the Championship after leaving Leicester this summer.
