More clarity on transfer clauses at PSV
1 min readUnlike last summer, this transfer summer has been fairly quiet so far at PSV. The club has already said goodbye to Ismael Saibari, who moved to FC Bayern München, and has signed Sven Mijnans from AZ.
In addition, Anass Salah-Eddine returned to AS Roma and this week the outgoing transfers of Armando Obispo and Adamo Nagalo were called off at the last moment. In addition, it has also long been clear that Joey Veerman, Mauro Junior and Sergino Dest can be picked up from the Philips Stadion via a transfer clause for a certain amount.
PSV watcher Tim Reedijk from Voetbal International provides more clarity about the current transfer situation at PSV. ''Now it is known that PSV – for some time now – has been looking for a left-back and for a central defender to plug the gaps left behind by the injured Jerdy Schouten and the departed Salah-Eddine'', Reedijk writes in VI.
The reporter also addresses the aborted transfer of Obispo. ''With the return, the second central position on the left side of the defense is filled again, although of course there is the chance that the defender will still make a move and PSV will have to go into the market. The club further responds mainly to outgoing transfers that simply have not yet happened,'' continues the PSV watcher.
Next, the transfer clauses of Veerman, Mauro and Dest are discussed. ''From Joey Veerman, Mauro Junior and Sergiño Dest, it is known that they have clauses in their contracts that run until a certain time. Meanwhile, some clauses within the commitments of selected players have expired. If these players do not find a new club, they naturally just remain PSV players. That is how Mauro, who was captain in Schouten’s absence, was not particularly interested in an approach from Fenerbahçe'', the journalist explains.
Reedijk thinks that for technical director Earnest Stewart this transfer summer is a matter of informing, nudging and pushing, and shadow lists. ''Watching players make another transfer that would be potential replacements for the current, yet-to-depart squad players. Strike when possible, wait if necessary'', according to the PSV watcher.

Eens, this is the match where Luuk is either the difference or dead weight. If he presses like a demon and wins the second balls, we look like title winners. If not, we will be chasing the game all night. 🔥💯
"We need more control in possession." ngl i agree, but not at the cost of tempo. When PSV slow it down, opponents get set and then we struggle to create big chances. Go for quick switches, not comfort.
lol calm down, PSV fans. Every time you say its a tactical breakthrough, your defenders still panic on transitions. If this is the plan, then prove it against a team that actually attacks with numbers 💀
"more direct in the final third" sounds good, but we have to stop wasting the first good position. Too many touches, then the cross is already rushed and not even on target. Go for the cutback or shoot earlier, dont overthink 😅
Tbh i think the coach should trust the kids a bit more, especially in the 10 role. We lack that quick turn between the lines, and it makes our attacks predictable. Give me that vertical pass and we are cooking 🚀
Eens. The article hit the key point about our pressing triggers. When we jump after the pass instead of waiting, it turns into an instant chance. That is how you break teams like Ajax, fast and ruthless 🔥
The midfield balance is the whole story for me. If Xavi starts too deep, we lose that immediate line-breaking pass and everything turns into sideways football. Also, if Jerdy Schouten is not at full speed, the whole structure looks shaky.
ngl, im not convinced by the midfield balance. When the DM steps out, the space in front of the back line gets huge. Id rather see one more runner into the half-spaces 👀
If PSV are really going with that high press again, i hope Sambo and Benitez can win those first duels. Because if the press gets bypassed, our back line will get exposed fast. 👀
If PSV really want to control games, we need more tempo in the build-up. Right now it feels like we slow it down too much and invite pressure. Still, when the winger gets 1v1, thats where it becomes dangerous 🔥
