Real Madrid continues with its strategy of outpacing the competition in the hunt for young talents, and one of the names that has emerged strongly on its radar is Kees Smit, the great pearl of AZ Alkmaar.

The Dutch midfielder, just 19 years old, is considered one of the most promising jewels of the Eredivisie, leading several Premier League teams to start making moves to secure his services for the upcoming summer.

Kees Smit, the pearl of AZ Alkmaar that Real Madrid is spying on

According to 'DefensaCentral', the Real Madrid sporting direction knows that English interest could increase the operation costs, thus contemplating accelerating the deadlines to secure his incorporation before June. It is no secret that the club maintains an extensive list of midfielders under surveillance, but Smit possesses various qualities that make him a market opportunity: youth, potential, and still an affordable price.

Internal reports suggest that his style would fit well into the current dynamics of the Madrid midfield, where the club is focusing on players with physical prowess, technical quality, and room for growth. While figures like Camavinga and the young Arda Güler are still in the consolidation process, the club aims to ensure that the generational shift is fully covered for the upcoming years.

One of the most relevant factors is the player's own desire. Smit has never hidden his admiration for Real Madrid, even going viral in images proudly displaying the club's crest. The footballer has admitted in interviews that since childhood, he dreamt of wearing white, although he has also hinted at FC Barcelona on other occasions. Nonetheless, Smit's willingness to join the Real Madrid project could greatly facilitate negotiations.

However, in Chamartín, they prefer to remain calm. The immediate priority is to strengthen the defensive line, especially considering the contractual situation of David Alaba and Antonio Rüdiger, whose agreements are ending soon. Yet, the growing interest from other clubs in Kees Smit could prompt Real Madrid to act more swiftly, preventing a repeat of what happened to other European gems ending up in England.

The focus on youth has been a constant in recent years, with successful operations like Vinícius, Rodrygo, or Bellingham, who are now vital pillars of the team. Smit's case could be a new medium-term strategic investment, with the goal of keeping the club at the forefront of world football for the next decade.

Currently, there is no definitive decision, but the scenario suggests that the Santiago Bernabéu's management will need to take action sooner than planned if they want to get ahead of the Premier League and secure one of Holland's most coveted talents.
