Kees Smit has become one of the key names in the European market for midfielders, especially for the big Spanish clubs looking for talent without skyrocketing costs.

In an inflated context where top midfielders easily exceed 80 million euros, the young Dutchman emerges as a more affordable alternative. At 20 years old, the AZ Alkmaar player is no longer a silent promise but an advanced project ready to take the leap.

Kees Smit , the profile that fits at Real Madrid

According to reports from DefensaCentral, in Real Madrid's roadmap, Kees Smit stands out for a clear reason: his price does not skyrocket like that of other top names. The white club holds very positive reports about his growth, his ability to organize the game, and his tactical reading in interior areas.

Although AZ Alkmaar values him internally above his market price, his transfer fee would be within reach for an elite club.

The FC Barcelona is also keeping an eye on Kees Smit

FC Barcelona is not unaware of Kees Smit's progress, despite having a wide and young midfield in its current squad. There is a certain caution in the offices regarding the full recovery of some key pieces, keeping external options open for the future.

The Dutch player is liked for his versatility, his ball reliability, and his ability to adapt to different playing systems.

The role of AZ Alkmaar in the operation

AZ Alkmaar is aware that Kees Smit is one of its major assets for the present and future, and therefore, there is no immediate rush. With a contract until 2028, the Dutch club knows that his value will increase if he maintains the progression shown in recent seasons.

However, everything seems to point to next summer as the chosen moment to seriously negotiate his departure.

A deliberate step in Kees Smit's career

Kees Smit's inner circle believes he is ready to take on a greater challenge in a top-tier league. After rejecting hasty moves in previous transfer windows, the midfielder sees favorably making the leap at the right time.

Neither Real Madrid nor FC Barcelona are in immediate urgency, turning the operation into a long-distance race. The final decision will depend on the sports planning and who bets more convincingly on Kees Smit.
